An Anonymous Patron sends “this article from the San Diego-area North County Times that touts the benefits of a public library for college-bound students.
Free public education and the free public library are the two institutions that have made America great, said Ellen Zyroff, spokeswoman for the county library system and one of several librarians around San Diego County interviewed during the past months for this story. They are the tools that have allowed people who wanted to rise to the stars, she said.
“Those two institutions —- if the people use them —- there’s no reason why they can’t rise to any place that they want,” she said. People can get the information that they need to get to where they want to go. It’s all there for the taking. Without them we would have a much bigger differentiation among the rich and the poor.”
