Librarian is not the sexiest job in the world. The ridiculously low pay is more than made up for by a total lack of respect from the rest of the world. Every time I begin to hate my job, I glance through this book and the feeling goes away. If you're interested in what goes on in libraries around the world, then this is highly recommended.

The actual photos in this book were recently on display in the Newport Beach Central Library. Accompanying the photos are wonderful quotes, all relative to reading, books, education, and libraries. When the display moved on, we were delighted to find the book and consider it a real treasure. It reminds residents how fortunate they are to have libraries in their communities, and inspires one to visit libraries featured in the book. A great book for children and adults alike.
