The Value of Your Local Library:

By providing materials and services free of charge, your local library strives to raise the status and the production of the community as a whole. Today libraries are the only place where information is freely available for everyone, covering a smorgasbord of subjects from all perspectives in a variety of formats whether it is for educational purposes, leisure, or entertainment.

To quote Alvin Toffler, "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." On that note, it is important to keep in mind that you local librarian is an information-literacy counselor who offers personalized help and assistance. Don't kid yourself -- it's a jungle out there and sooner or later you're going to need professional help to find that "needle in the haystack." It's important to remember that your local librarian is your personal guide teaching you survival skills for a competitive world in the 21st century…
