Dear Jeff Baker, Director
Chili Library
Another great quote from Historian, Barbara Tuchman:
"Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Without books, the development of civilization would not have been possible. They are the engines of change, windows on the world and lighthouses erected in the sea of time. They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind."
