Library/ Here is where people/ One frequently finds/ Lower their voices/ And raise their mind.
Richard Armour, poet
There are many ways to enlarge your child’s world. Love of books is the best of all.
Jacqueline Kennedy, First Lady of the United States
Libraries allow children to ask questions about the world and find the answers. And the wonderful thing is that once a child learns to use a library, the doors to learning are always open.
Laura Bush, First Lady of the United States
The public library is one of the great strongholds of democracy. Who doesn’t love a library? It is a place you can go in any town and discover the world.
Pat MacEnulty, author
Libraries are absolutely at the center of my life. Since I couldn’t afford to go to college, I attended the library three or four days a week from the age of eighteen on, and graduated from the library when I was twenty-eight.
