So absolutely true. Please remember this the next time your municipality wants to cut library funding. My parents allowed my 3 sisters and I to get 10 books every week from the library…we all have advanced degrees and are a minister, a doctor, a teacher and an administrative assistant. Hmmm…wonder if there’s a connection there!
