"That there should one man die ignorant who had capacity for knowledge, this I call a tragedy, were it to happen, more than twenty times in the minute as by some computations it does". These words, by Thomas Carlyle, are inscribed above the doorway. What more eloquent argument for the preservation of our free public library system?
