*Dedicated to K2 and my favorite childhood librarian who let me check out all the books.
“When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.”-Isaac Asimov
“A library implies an act of faith.”-Victor Hugo
“Cutting libraries during a recession is like cutting hospitals during a plague.”-Eleanor Crumblehulme
“The only thing that you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library.”-Albert Einstein
“Children have to have access to books, and a lot of children can’t go to a store and buy a book. We need not only our public libraries to be funded properly and staffed properly, but our school libraries. Many children can’t get to a public library, and the only library they have is a school library.”- Katherine Paterson
“Bad libraries build collections, good libraries build services, great libraries build communities.”-R. David Lankes
“I’m of a fearsome mind to throw my arms around every living librarian who crosses my path, on behalf of the souls they never knew they saved.”-Barbara Kingsolver
