Saw this in American Libraries Direct, May 9, 2007 and just had to pass it on:

“I think it’s important to recognize our librarians, the guardians of the books that provide us with so much. I’d like to extend a sincere note of thanks to every librarian out there. Without their careful tending of the contents of the library, we would all suffer. Librarians are an invaluable resource in our pursuit of pleasure, knowledge, and understanding. Let them know you appreciate what they do. They deserve it.”

Columnist Kendal A. Rautzhan, Barre-Montpelier (Vt.) Times Argus, May 7.

Thank you Mr. Rautzhan - I couldn’t agree with you more!
