Neil Gaiman and the Terrible Library Mistake

Alright, so he didn't make a terrible library mistake, but he did say closing libraries would be a terrible mistake.

"We're now in an age of 'too much information'. Libraries and librarians are more important than ever.

"Children want stories. They want information. They want knowledge about the strange world they're in. Saying that the internet can be that is like setting a child free in a jungle and expecting them safely to find things to eat."


Also if libraries close that's $45000 visits he's not making money from, ah ha ha ho ho ho ZING. Just kidding, I love me some Neil Gaiman.
