"Theoretically, it would be possible for every single person in the world to read the same book or listen to the same [radio] program simultaneously. On the other hand, if even a substantial minority of humankind were to log on to the Internet or dial a telephone number simultaneously, the systems would collapse." (p. 95) “Joseph Campbell wrote about ‘thin places’ — places on earth at which the curtain between the normal and the paranormal can be lifted. These are the places that, because of their history and associations, have a sacred quality that causes the visitor to meditate on the perception that there is more to human existence than daily joys and sorrows. … There is something of the sacred in the least library: something that speaks to us of the human soul as well as the human mind, of the continuity of memory and achievement, of the joy of youth and the wisdom of age.” (p. 161) inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
Gorman shares "observations rooted in experience and reason that may provide insight into libraries, librarianship, and being a librarian today." Using a style that includes a quotation, short essay, and resolution, his topics cover Ranganathan's laws, Andrew Carnegie, e-mail, kiosks, AACR2, food and drink in the library, problem patrons, and much, much more.--Preface, p.xiii.
