Child of the Library

Filed under: Library — Patrick Durusau @ 6:29 pm

Public libraries, for me, are in a category all their own.

I was fortunate to grow up in a community that supported public libraries. And I have spent most of my life across several careers using libraries of one sort or another, including public ones.

Public libraries offer at no cost to patrons opportunities to be informed about current events, to learn more than is taught in any university, to be entertained by stories from near and far and even long ago.

Public libraries are also community centers where anyone can meet, where economic limitations don’t prevent access to the latest technologies or information streams.

Visit and support your local public library.

Every public library is a visible symbol that government thought control may be closing in, but it hasn’t won, yet.
