Washington. -- After three decades of teaching, I am surprised by very little in academe. But I must confess that after a great deal of traveling over the past year in some distant parts of the United States, I was truly disappointed to find college and university libraries making it difficult, if not impossible, for anyone other than their own students and faculty to enter.Mind you, I have no quarrel with visitors in an academic librar having to produce credentials to check out books, but to require visitors to go through an identification process simply to enter library doors and make use of materials in-house goes against my sense of what an academic institution is all about, especially today when reading programs, including Project Literacy, are so enthusiastically endorsed throughout the land.
