“Your library is where the community stores its treasures. It's the house that imagination built. It's where all the stories that matter are gathered together and celebrated and shared....People come to it communally for something that's deep and ancient and important beyond an easy explanation. Who you are as a town is in the library. It's why when you want to destroy a place you burn down the library. People who fear freedom fear libraries.”
― Brian Doyle, One long River of Song
