Rural Saskatchewan Library Director Sentenced to Two Years for Nearly $1 million in Fraud at Library

A Saskatchewan library director who defrauded his system of half a million dollars (and possibly as much as one million dollars though that wasn't proven) over a period of fourteen years via orders to a false US-based publisher that he'd set up himself was sentenced earlier this week to two years in prison less a day.

Too bad the media kept identifying him as a “Saskatoon librarian” as this might give the impression he worked for SPL instead of the truth which was that he was director for a rural system that is based in Saskatoon but operates in rural communities south of that city.

Here are some more news stories about this if you're interested.
