[ISLMA-Share] Congratulations to the New Librarian of Congress - Carla Hayden

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I love this quote by her..
"As a descendant of people who were denied the right to read, to now have
the opportunity to serve and lead the institution that is the national
symbol of knowledge, is a historic moment," - Carla Hayden, 14th Librarian
of Congress

“In the nonstop tsunami of global information, librarians provide us with
floaties and teach us to swim.”
