A photographic love letter to public libraries

“A library is many things,” E.B. White once wrote in a letter to the children of a little town to inspire them to fall in love with their new library. “But particularly it is a place where books live, and where you can get in touch with other people, and other thoughts, through books… Books hold most of the secrets of the world, most of the thoughts that men and women have had.”


Wonderful photos and important thoughts about libraries: http://www.dailygood.org/more.php?n=6950a

(I hate to say this out loud but I fear for the future of our libraries.)
