I think this is terrible! I'm a non-librarian who works for a publishing
company. Not answering us (non-librarians) is childish. It's not a
solution it's misleading! The types of questions as well as the "rules"
should be defined and updated as needed.

If non-librarians are not acknowledged, why are we allowed to join in the
first place? Ridiculous AND disappointing.
