So…I’m trying to figure out how Wired managed to interview Paul for a feature, take pictures of campus, and no one decided to tell me about it? We even get pictures of some classmates in the story. Great publicity for Ibiblio, and here’s hoping it ends up in the print version (not likely, but would be excellent). Very cool stuff…congratulations, all you wacky Ibiblio guys….and great publicity for librarians as well (The title of the piece is “Freedom Fightin’ Librarians…Where sharing isn’t a dirty word”…you GO wired).
