Seriously, come out of your little ideological bubble. You're like the people who tried to kill radio, theatre, opera, ballet and the like just because the television was created.

I'd be shocked, except that I'm not sure why a HS needs a library in the first place.

I'm not surprised, I've seen enough American movies and TV shows to realize that.
