Book cover for The New Librarianship Field Guide (The MIT Press)
Librarianship grows and adapts to the present because it adopts and adapts the social constructs of the communities it serves. As these communities (universities, schools, law firms) change, so, too, must librarianship.

Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another What! You
“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Huston Smith
“Practice giving things away, not just things you don't care about, but things you do like. Remember, it is not the size of a gift, it is its quality and the amount of mental attachment you overcome that count. So don't bankrupt yourself on a momentary positive impulse, only to regret it later. Give thought to giving. Give small things, carefully, and observe the mental processes going along with the act of releasing the little thing you liked. (53)
(Quote is actually Robert A F Thurman but Huston Smith, who only wrote the introduction to my edition, seems to be given full credit for this text.)”
Huston Smith, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Liberation Through Understanding the Between

Steve Maraboli
“The greatest step towards a life of simplicity is to learn to let go.”
Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

Robert A. Heinlein
“Take sides! Always take sides! You will sometimes be wrong - but the man who refuses to take sides must always be wrong.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Double Star

Kevin Hearne
“I can't spend too much time in the forests because I invariably leave traces-ridiculously happy trees, basically, since I'm the last Druid in the world and they tend to geek out like Joss Whedon fans when I show up.”
Kevin Hearne, Kaibab Unbound
