Libraries We Love goes to Seattle–and Paris

Delightful to arrive in Seattle for the American Library Association conference and be greeted by enthusiastic cab drivers (“my favorite convention”) and by a piece in the Seattle Times:

“Heart of the Community: The Libraries We Love” edited by Karen Christensen, David Levinson and others (Berkshire Publishing, $49.95). A photo-essay love song to libraries across the U.S. and Canada, including three in our own state: the Seattle Public Library’s new Ballard Branch, Winslow’s Bainbridge Public Library and Gardens and the Everett Public Library.
