“The Education Department pulled its summer reading list from its Web site after learning the list misspelled and misidentified book titles and authors. Librarians also said the list was outdated.”
“The list included children’s classics such as Beverly Cleary’s “Ramona the Brave,” Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird” and George Orwell’s “Animal Farm.” But librarians say it recommends few titles from the last decade.”
“I don’t know if someone pulled out a really old bibliography from a file cabinet somewhere,” Nancy Margolin, a media specialist at McDougle Elementary School in Chapel Hill, N.C., said Wednesday. “These don’t seem like the kinds of lists that would be provided by librarians.” (from AP)
