Monday morning always brings a really big stack of mail for the library. Today's stack included the new issue of Library Journal, which means I'll take 20 minutes or so this afternoon to browse it in search of ideas and good books to buy. Always a nice little break, especially from my current project which involves searching for missing books and updating catalog records. Super fun. In addition to my LJ, the mail also included the usual stack of magazines to be checked in and renewal reminders for subscriptions.
One of these reminders contained, like so many others lately, a long letter explaing why renewing my subscription will enhance the quality of life for all Americans. As usual, it was a bit hyperbolic. This is nothing strange. I generally skim these, roll my eyes once or twice, and send the invoice to the comptroller to be paid. However, this reminder, for a newletter called America's Future (a lofty title) caused me a second glance. What stood out from this renewal notice was a bullet point that read (in part): "I want America's Future to continue its newsletter and radio broadcasts on national security...threats from the United Nations treaties and Communist China.
Apparently, the dirty reds are still out to get us.
