The Diane Rehm show discussed the role of libraries in the current economic crisis.
What surprised me most was how little people understand what libraries really do - we are underestimated and unsupported. It seemed unknown to some that libraries offer movies, programming, coffee shops, tutoring, etc....
This just demonstrates that we are not selling what we do - recently overheard at a family meal "aren't all libraries empty any how? who goes to a library?" This from my own family - trust me - they won't make that mistake again!
