I wanted to include the ALA Library Bill of Rights in this discussion so I’m including a snapshot of the ALA webpage and hightlighted the portions of the BOR that I think apply here.

Stern is printed in a democratic country that honors a free press.  U.S. customers are being censored and libraries holdings are not being fully represented because certain issues are deemed too controversial.  DPV has censored what we receive, even though we have paid for those issues.  Don’t we want to have complete runs of a title no matter what someone’s legal department thinks about managing their legal risk?

Hi all,

 

Whether we agree with them or not, I actually think they make a very good point and am glad they have finally acknowledged why they are not distributing the issues in the U.S.
