National Library Week: A Celebration of Books Through Music
It’s National Library Week here in the United States, and this year’s theme is “There’s More to the Story.” This is definitely fitting (for our purposes, at least), especially given the fact that this article is not only about libraries themselves... but also about music related to stories or literature in some way.
Before we get to all that, we need to set the record straight: libraries are awesome. While COVID may have had a tremendous impact on library systems due to closures and low foot traffic, and many people consider libraries to be ‘dead’...
They aren't.
But they do need your help.
And honestly, you probably need your library more than you think, too.
"What do I need a library for? I have my cellphone/the Internet/whatever."
Listen—I get it. I love my hand...
