Libraries are a pillar of liberty; they equalize and transform.
Matthew Vossler
Libraries are the hearts of our communities.
Jennifer R. Hubbard, author
Library/ Here is where people/ One frequently finds/ Lower their voices/ And raise their mind.
Richard Armour, poet
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
Books are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind—humanity in print.
