Public Libraries "I Recieved the fundamentals of my education in school,but that was not enough. My real education,thesuperstructure, the details, the true architecture, I got
out of the public library. For an impoverised child whosefamily could not afford to buy books,the library was theopen door to wonder and achievement. And I can never be sufficiently grateful that I had the wit to charge theoughthat door and make the most of it.
~IsaacAsimov
