Would it be fair to briefly summarize Mann's critique of Calhoun's
report as follows:
1. LC is threatening to abandon its commitment to provide the
intellectual tools and accomplish a substantial portion of the
cataloging work of the nation's libraries
2. LCSH and browsing are useful to scholarly researchers
3. Calhoun wants to abandon library catalogs in favor of Google Book
If I'm off the mark, how would you summarize it?
