Subject: [NGC4LIB] Help! "Elevator speech" for keeping a cataloger

Hello all,

Due to a cut in the budget for our library, we are possibly facing the
loss of our cataloger.  My boss is under the impression that this can
be easily outsourced to a clerical level person.  I was wondering if
anyone had any talking points or an "elevator speech" I can give to
her and senior management to possibly change their minds.  I know the
loss of this position would be devastating.


Thanks in advance,
