Throughout my formal education I spent many, many hours in public and school libraries. Libraries became courts of last resort, as it were. The current definitive answer to almost any question can be found within the four walls of most libraries.

If you want to find your happy place, just go to the library.
Lizzie K. Foley, author
I cannot think of a day in my life when the library didn’t exert a potent attraction for me, offering a sense of the specialness of each individual’s curiosity and his or her quest to satisfy it.
Scott Turow, lawyer & author
Books are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind—humanity in print.
