Whoops, they forgot to mention Mao's Cultural Revolution, which persecuted academics and sent the brightest scholars of the young generation out to hard labor on farms.  I'm not sure an anti-intellectual purge is something a library would want to associate itself with.

Oh, and he slaughtered millions too...

This is like the Department of Transportation making an ad comparing itself to that other great road builder: Hitler.

Maybe the city art museum can run a "famous artists" ad campaign featuring Hitler.

Maybe the local NPR station can run a "famous radio engineers" campaign featuring Pol Pot.

Maybe the local school district can run a "famous principals" campaign featuring Mussolini.

The library is free to say what they want, but making so light of a mass murderer is pretty weak.
