The Tragedy at Central Library
On a day when the events in Russia taught us the fragile quality of our future, we should applaud the bravery and determination of our firefighters and the expertise of our librarians.
For their attempts to protect and save what is best about our past--our precious library and its treasured books--we thank them.
