Celebrate librarianship and the love of libraries with this charming collection of quotes! Tatyana Eckstrand has compiled nearly three hundred of the most insightful, thought-provoking, and inspiring aphorisms about the library profession.
Writers from Shakespeare to Ray Bradbury and librarians from John Cotton Dana to Nancy Pearl are gathered together to sing the praises of librarians' skills, values, and the amazing institutions they support. Citations are provided to the original source material, and a handy biographical dictionary provides background on individuals who may not be household names. With its broad selection of sayings that pay honor to their work and commitment, The Librarian's Book of Quotes is a perfect gift for information professionals and lovers of libraries.
"…a fabulous and entertaining compilation of quotations on and about libraries."
--The Midwest Book Review
"The quotes are sometimes moving, sometimes funny, sometimes irreverent, but always dead-on ... This book is a gem."
--The Voice
