minor figure at best, questionable notability, notability not established by article Buridan (talk) 16:07, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. I added a reference from U.S. News and World Report, which together with the other references seems to establish notability. Notable both as an academic and as a book author. --Eastmain (talk) 16:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * this could end being the most referenced stub around.. I don't think you still have anyone that is necessarily notable, i have more media hits. the sole notability is book related, at least that's what you seem to be saying, no? so why not merge this with an article about his notable book--Buridan (talk) 20:53, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep/Comment The problem is that the guy publishes as Barron H. Lerner. Lots of ghits for him that way....Literally dozens of NY Times articles by him.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by DeGawl (talk • contribs) 22:13, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I am not sure abut a scholarhip, but the popular science writing is quite sufficint for notability. The ALA awardsis a major one, the NYT reviews are significant.
