While we are crashing and burning.....

Amazon’s revenue and profit soar, quarter results just released. Amazon is coming not only after retail stores, but also the library division. Government budgets will continue to get squeezed forcing libraries to go to the cheapest source.

What a good piece on how poorly management reacts to change. Yep. Follett is there. I'd love to say it's been good know you, but that is as much of a lie as Follett Values. Truth is, my career died the day my university announced they were leasing to Follett.
