Quote of the Day (James Billington, on Why Books Last Forever)


“Books convince; they do not coerce. In libraries throughout America, books that disagree with each other stand peacefully next to one another in the stacks, and readers work peacefully alongside each other in reading rooms.”—Librarian of Congress James Billington, “Why Books Will Last Forever,” The Record (Bergen County, N.J.), September 28, 2010
