FYI:
A generally supportive blog on public libraries by Telegraph columnist
James Delingpole referring to a Read-In being held tomorrow at Minet
Library in Lambeth:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole/100075702/why-save-libraries/
It probably won't please everyone, but he does argue that "library funding
... is a rare example of public spending that is not only defensible but
actively desirable."

P.S. If you suffer from hypertension, I wouldn't recommend that you read
many of the comments. :-)
