I, too, was uncomfortable and disturbed by the notice for a 
professional volunteer librarian.  However, it is our job to 
advocate, not to censor.  Perhaps the organization should receive a 
barrage of email from professional librarians "educating" them 
instead.  On the other hand, volunteering is a gift.  Who are we to 
decide that someone with skills, education and wealth cannot dedicate 
themselves to the cause and contribute as a volunteer?
