Do archivists have courses in Ethics?  That's interesting...

Why would it be your responsibility to *alert everyone* and not their 
responsiblity to *check out* his story, like you did...sort of a seller 
beware type thing....

Your prices should be your prices...and other folks should charge what they 
charge whether bulk or not....no price fixing allowed....:)

Hey, it takes lawyers awhile to read all that fine print too....:)

Maarja,

Unfortunately, our legal department took a year to review a contract for 
photocopiers in the Library!

It was not my intention to "black ball" this person nor defame them.  I 
thought it a professional responsibility to advise my colleagues of a 
situation where a patron was obviously using false information to gain 
access to material in university archives at costs below what they might 
normally charge, thinking that their colleagues were doing the same for this 
patron.
