Dance program goes belly up at CA county’s libraries

I don’t know how we missed This One From a couple weeks ago, but Stanislaus, Californian, County Library patrons can read any of 10 books on belly dancing, from techniques to costumes. They also can check out a DVD on belly dancing as an exercise.
But they can’t attend a belly dancing program at the library anymore.

Stanislaus County Chief Executive Officer Rick Robinson has canceled the program, which was scheduled for April 22.

The Bee received several letters concerning Stanislaus County CEO Rick Robinson’s decision to halt a belly dancing class at the library — including an essay from a retired county librarian.
