We all have to stand by our life's work as the true test of what we have done for the world.

Ive done a dozen or two dozen infomercials.

No salesman can ever guarantee you a grant from any government or non-profit organization.

Teachers can go on cruises with the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration and anyone can spend the summer as a volunteer in a National Parks and even earn money doing it.

What is also strange to me is that public libraries have always been in the forefront of opposing censorship.

I've been talking about the centrality of libraries in our information society for a while now.

The way we've been neglecting to support our libraries throughout the country is a shame.
