Thank you for the question, Mr. Housefather.
Ironically, a lot of the members of The Writers' Union are teachers themselves, so they feel sort of stuck in the middle on this kind of thing. It really comes back to something that somebody was saying earlier, which was that there is obviously a lot of economic and budgetary pressure on K-12 schools these days. It seems to be that one of the first places budget makers will look is at the materials budget.
Our official position at The Writers' Union is that we're not mad at the teachers, not at all. We understand that they are in a very difficult position and we do understand that they're often spending their own money to outfit their school libraries. Really, it's a question of setting the principles in place in law and making sure that the funding is available.
