Investing in the Children's Section

Bookslut has a great article about Investing in the Children's Section of public libraries. The author uses the new library in Eugene, Oregon, and explains what she and her son love about their library. Most of the things they love are attainable by any public library serviing children: put books on display so busy parents can reach out and grab, have puzzles and puppets and toys, and have art on display. Her love letter to her public library is not about the budget or the new library. It is about how her library makes her and her son feel.
