This seems as good a time and place as any to call attention to a service started by the Brooklyn Public Library and one that my library, the Seattle Public Library, participates in: Books Unbanned. This service provides access to the e-books and audio books in the library to young people (ages 13 to 26) who live anywhere in the U.S. All they have to do is go to the Seattle Public Library website and fill out a simple form. This service is entirely supported by donations. I'm proud to be a donor.
There are -- I hope -- other libraries whose leaders are interested in this service. Its purpose is to help young people "read what you want, discover yourself and form your own opinions." Young people everywhere need our support, especially in places where they feel alone and misunderstood. This is a way to help them.
