Sue, thank you for all you have done for the library and the town. People like you, dedicated to fostering a community of ideas, are essential to a society that believes in freedom of speech and expression. Unfortunately, they are also a challenge to those who prefer censorship and secrecy. Keep up the good work!
Ms. Horton has done a wonderful job at our library providing materials of all kinds to Trumbull. Her ethics, reasoning and open-minded decisions are evident.
I am so disgusted by the way Herbst has handled this, and the way Mrs. Horton has been "thrown under the bus" on this.
If this was a simple matter of town liability as our FS says, then why did he not quietly go to the Resnick's and ask them to sign the indemnification and provide insurance. If they did, the problem would have been solved with no censorship issue. If they refused, then all the pictures should have been removed. Am I missing something here?
I don't know of anyone who works so hard for this town, cares so much about the community and brings more expertise and professionalism to her job than Sue Horton. Thank you Sue Horton for serving Trumbull with such grace. We are lucky to have you.
Susan Hirton is a town treasure and needs to stay on as Trumbull library director
The picture in question is about women who have made a difference!!! It is that simple!

Sue has been doing a fine job as librarian and it would be completely unfair for her to get fired for defending freedom of artistic expression!
