In other comments you talk about how you are smart enough to do your own research therfore librarians aren't needed. yet you cant find the library portal for your own college.
🤔

Okay they think they are desperate enough to cut the library to save costs. They say the university can function fine without this critical resource. It will just be more difficult for people who utilize this resource
If they are that desperate mabye the new president and executive board should all cut their salaries to 40k a year. You can technically survive off of that salary. It will just be more difficult.

Using the google and doing scholarly research withing an internal system are also like completely different skillsets. Something tells me that since op doesn't understand the importance of a librarian in even an online database. That he isn't really that good at doing scholarly research. In another comment he claims his school uses "AI" instead of librarians

You do know that the organizing structure of a library is a science and people go to school for it right? They spend countless hours categorizing and sorting through internal materials so they have a library that makes sense. Even digitally.

They don't need to be taught how to use computers. But when it comes to navigating an institutions internal library, yeah people need help with that. Its not always easy.

Im sure the librarians still spearheaded this. Since like you know. They are professionally trained in doing it.
Would you want 18 year old work study students uploading and categorizating rare priceless documents without any sort of oversight?
Also asking college students to pirate for their research? Thats not a good idea. You can usually get the needed materials through the library

On the counterpoint even like 5 years ago I had some professors require bringing physical books to class. Guess where I got the books from when I needed them.
Twombls t1_j7u85cj wrote
This isn't a great take because keep in mind college libraries also give you access to digital books paid paywalled research materials that are necessary for for coursework
Also like I too never bought all the books that were required and preferred digital. But even like 5 years ago when I was in college some professors required physical books. Guess where I got the books when I was required to show up in class with them?

If you look at who tends to be on the select boards and what they own the rules start making sense.

Burlington banned them effectively.
Just prohibit a non homestead from being a rental unless you have a hotel license in commercially zoned property. If you have an accessory building or at least two low income units within a building you can apply to have one unit get a b&b license

Dont even have to outright ban them. Look at what burlington did.
They allow airbnbs to exist as the app "advertises". You can rent a room out in your primary residence. You just can't rent out whole units.
Twombls t1_j7magdp wrote
The state should look at burlingtons model as an example.
Renting out a room within a house is fine as long as its a primary residence.
Renting out a non homestead is illegal

They also unfortunately tend to be the ones that own airbnbs

Its a serious problem in like actual groomed cross country trails or popular backcountry areas. The catamount trail gets constantly post holed.
If its just a trail you knock out in a field in your neighborhood its kinda a free for all

Is this a dedicated ski track or just a skin track in a field you layed out? If its the latter you may just be sol.
Especially if you are the only skiier in an area with mostly walkers.
