RE: Re: Library reserves

I'm not opining on the merits, just suggesting that the 11th Amendment is no panacea. So you sue the individuals involved and hold them personally liable. Not much of a trade off for faculty and librarians. I'd try for injunctive relief and statutory damages lowered since I'm a non-profit state educational institution. Llew
