Litlove, there’s a Carnegie Hall in London? Do they do classical music performances there like in NY? And are there jokes like– How to you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice!

Emily, you have done your part in celebrating the week. A golden bookmark to you! :)

Courtney, thanks. Your library gets mentioned and photographed often. It is a beautiful one. You are very lucky.

As a beneficiary of the amazing Pittsburgh Carnegie library system I will say a little extra thanks to him this week.

And hurray for libraries and national library week. In honor of the week, I visited my local library. I ordered a book through ILL (first time since I moved here). And I visited the main, downtown Lancaster library branch. Not bad for one week.

I admire so much these people who have the philanthropic touch.
