Morgan Brown and his blogs

Morgan Brown has experienced homelessness. He writes at least 2 other blogs: Affordable Housing in Vermont and Norsehorse's Home Turf in addition to his self-titled one.

He's passionate about the need to end homelessness. In his post entitled "the Homeless Challenge,' he writes
That is what guides who gets what funding, where that funding goes and how it is used. It certainly is not, and never has been, about having enough money available; those are just excuses. It is about having the will and using it meaningfully and powerfully in determining how priorities are set and who sets those priorities of course.


What I will be looking at is how libraries meet that challenge. Where are our priorities? Of course we can't, as the institutions we are, provide housing, per se. Nevertheless, the information and the tools to use it we provide are as necessary as shelter from the elements.
