STFU, Conservatives
Whether libraries should continue to exist has almost nothing to do with what format the information comes in. It has everything to do with free public access to well-curated, well-organised, unbiased information; it has everything to do with libraries as part of the local community; it has everything to do with libraries as a source of entertainment that doesn’t presume everyone’s lives are an endless race to acquire wealth and possessions. Librarians aren’t out to sell you anything.

Are Public Libraries Obsolete?: The Shelf Life of a “Dream Vision” - seattlepi.com (via infoneer-pulse)

if anyone comes to me and asks me this question in person i will punch them in the face.

(via theoceanandthesky)

Libraries embody everything conservatives hate: things that are free, things that benefit poor people, things that don’t make money, and learning.
