Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!
Poor people use libraries. Rich people shut them down because they don't *want* poor people to read.

I've lived in places with exceptional libraries, and others that were not so much. A library tells you a lot about the community, and makes for a good measure when choosing places to live. It doesn't have to be the Taj Mahal, but it should be engaged and engaging.
