"Oh, we grew up poor, but not impoverished," Hamill said.
What's the difference? "The library."

We are saddened to hear about the death of Pete Hamill. Not only was he a legendary journalist, but a lifelong library lover, who we were proud to host at the Library last year.

An honor and a privilege. RIP #PeteHamill

#AntiracistPGC On Virtual Learning - Ts consider: "Every S should have access to internet & their OWN computer..." - Dr. Kendi. I'm super happy that @FCPSMaryland made this a priority in the spring, and I'm excited to see them continue this work.

@erintheshea @BreneBrown You’re welcome! She’s such an inspiration.

Hey @ericsyuan & @zoom_us - any chance you would consider extending free basic usage to public libraries? We serve more than 50% of Americans and can help combat social isolation in these times of social distance. #libraries #COVID19

I read Seth Godin every day and this one really hit a cord. If only everyone conducted business as he describes. And, if you read to the end, you'll see he's a fellow cilantro hater! https://t.co/jOBrt2WOci

📣 ALA Advocates, we have BIG reason to celebrate! 📣

So, I took my 8 yo daughter to see @ewarren in Peterborough, NH today. At the end of the long car ride home, I asked her what she remembered about what Sen. Warren said (1/x)

[EricaRoggeveenByrne @eroggbyrne]

She remembered climate change, and then with some prodding she remembered affordable health care and voting rights (2/x)

[EricaRoggeveenByrne @eroggbyrne]

I said "do you remember how much people making over $50M would be taxed on every dollar over that?" (3/x)

[EricaRoggeveenByrne @eroggbyrne]

Instantly, she responded "2 cents!" and then, math whiz that she is, she added, "so you'd have to make $50 dollars to owe $1." (4/x)
