"'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.' I wrote these words more than 10 years ago in an essay called 'How Mr. Dewey Decimal Saved My Life.' Now, in a world where kids are often strapped for both resources and valid information, I believe in libraries as havens of salvation more than ever."
-- Barbara Kingsolver
"All you need in life is truth and beauty and you can find both at the Public Library."
-- Studs Terkel
