The American Library Association has started a new campaign to increase awareness about libraries--the new endangered species. Libraries, like parks, help ALL members of the community. Librarians help with job searches, edit resumes, and provide resources for students. Libraries provide free internet access for low-income families who don't have it. Libraries provide downloads of audiobooks and loan DVDs for free. No matter your political party affiliation, you must agree that libraries provide resources for ALL citizens. The doorway inscription at the Library of Thebes says it best--"Medicine for your soul."
