November 30, 2000 Dear Mr. Neinast: I have received your letter of November 16, 2000 requesting a change in our Library's requirement that visitors wear shoes while in our facilities. I do not believe such a change is advisable. The authority to make such decisions has been delegated to me by the Board of Trustees of the Columbus Metropolitan Library. I hope that we may continue to serve you in the future. Sincerely, LARRY D. BLACK Director
