You're a fine writer, and you deserve better.Sandra Parshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403144248962124138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-64052888233359788312013-08-24T19:12:33.609-04:002013-08-24T19:12:33.609-04:00Our library here in Norman, OK recently started a ...Our library here in Norman, OK recently started a program where through their online catalog, patrons can order books through Amazon. The library's online services earns a small percentage, plus authors get their cut, too. I think this is a grand idea, don't you?<br />Here it is on our main library page: http://pion.sdp.sirsi.net/client/MAINAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12569920481627288945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-35416953831057174032013-08-24T14:34:23.168-04:002013-08-24T14:34:23.168-04:00Libraries don't have to be palaces like some o...Libraries don't have to be palaces like some of the examples I cite, Warrior. They only have to be places for books to live and for people to have access to them. I've seen some pretty humble libraries, too. Some in mobile homes and some little better than sheds. Doesn't matter. They are like Dr. Who's Tardis: they are bigger on the inside than the outside.

My hometown library dates to around 1900 (the gift of a successful grocer whose business was across the street--and is now the police station) and wants to be an extended sitting room, complete with fireplace. Not quite as useful in this day and age.<br /><br />A friend just sent her daughter off to college in Massachusetts.
