I was excited to receive a LINK from my friend Lyndajo to an article that lists The Best Library In Every State. When I read that the designation in Idaho is the Coeur d’Alene Public Library, we made a point of visiting it on a trip to that neck of the woods.
“When you absolutely positively have to know, ask a librarian.” —American Library Association
I was delighted to discover that they carry my book, Note to Self: A Seven-Step Path to Gratitude and Growth.
“When I got my library card, that’s when my life began.”
–Rita Mae Brown
I was wowed by this set of moose bookends—they’re taller than I am!
“The library card is a passport to wonders and miracles, glimpses into other lives, religions, experiences, the hopes and dreams and strivings of ALL human beings, and it is this passport that opens our eyes and hearts to the world beyond our front doors, that is one of our best hopes against tyranny, xenophobia, hopelessness, despair, anarchy, and ignorance.” —Libba Bray
October 14th was Indie Author Day. I hope you had the opportunity to attend the festivities at your local library; I had the privilege of speaking at the Boise Public Library that day.
“The truth is libraries are raucous clubhouses for free speech, controversy, and community.” —Paula Poundstone
When was the last time you checked a book out from your library?
