Gosh David Pearlmutter, thanks for the great tip and Caroline, wow, this is a splendid reminder. Thank you for capturing this. To me Librarians are such incredible resources and guides. I love the idea of local libraries as "3rd places." I think that's spot on. I have the benefit of living in a generous community that's continued supporting library funding.
Thank you for your perspective! I love the point you made about libraries being a place for finding common ground. It’s so important these spaces exist as our society becomes more and more polarized.
