Dewey is a legend – you know, the Dewey decimal system for ordering library books? – and perhaps was responsible for the entry of women into the profession. Yay, but, he also was censured and removed from office in 1906 – 1906, people – for his handsy ways (we call that harassment or assault now) and the racism and anti-Semitism he exhibited at his private club. His defense? Some of my best friends are Jews. – Slate
