The use of the words "librarian's," "guide," "patrons," and "genealogy" or "genealogical" 
is commonplace among librarians serving genealogists. Their occurrence in Toni Raptis's 
lecture title and in Sharon Centanne's online publication should in no way be construed as 
Toni using Sharon's materials.

My apologies to Toni for this question being raised on a public forum.

Please be reasurred that I am not using your materials.  I never heard of you or your 
publication.  The subject is the same, but my approach to this subject is my own.

Librarian's Guide to Helping Patron's with Genealogical Research was published by myself
online in 1998. You name sounds almost the same.

Please let me know if you are using my materials. I do own the copyright.

Thank you!
