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

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

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?

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

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.
