Library love: What else goes on besides book borrowing?

If you're on this blog, chances are that you'd consider reading, books, and/or the library as your first love.

We have a few posts to celebrate the latter today.

One comes from the New York Times and is heavier on the photos — it highlights the growing role of libraries beyond lending books across the United States.

The other comes from Publishers Weekly and across the pond; it too examines the broader purpose of a library, this time through the lens of Korea's community libraries.
