Employee Rights Versus the First Amendment.
Walker, Lois; Teaster, Gale; Kelley, Gloria
American Libraries, v29 n5 p60-61 May 1998
Illustrates a case of a student art exhibit in the Winthrop University, South Carolina Library, where freedom of expression interfered with employee rights in the workplace. The Dean of Libraries stated that the library could not act as a censor, and that they were obligated to defend the First Amendment; the controversial statue remained, but additional space was offered for a display on animal rights.
