I love this sculpture outside the State Library of Victoria, Australia. It always reminds me that the threats faced by each libraries are real and potentially vital.
Even after I bought the theory of Dave that we should not talk about "save the library" any more, I still think these two points are not totally contradictory. We can be positive and awesome, yet we must know all the real problems our libraries are having and try to solve them. It's my "optimist pessimism" (or "pessimist optimism" if you like).
Good weekend, everyone!
