A library without the books - The Boston Globe
Here's a new trend. Hard for me to fathom a library without books...
A library without the books - The Boston Globe:
"“It makes me sad,’’ said Vezina, who hosts a book club on campus dubbed the Off-line Readers and has made a career of introducing students to books. “I’m going to miss them. I love books.
