Hey, I will so BE there. I loved this book. It truly was a love letter to librarians from a distinguished journalist. The behind the scenes look at the public librarians was enthralling. It isn’t often that a someone on the outside really GETS it. The trials and tribulations of public service combined with the thrilling moments of successfully uncovering the information or materials a patron needs.
