 We just got this book in our library and it made me feel proud to be a
librarian! It's an inspirational book and I highly recommend it (especially
when you feel like you're having a tough day--it will remind you of all the
reasons why you wanted to be a librarian and all the reasons why it's
important to be a librarian.)

LM Netters

The following is a posting straight from NPR where you can listen to the
interview with the author that was transmitted yesterday.

"Liane Hansen talks with Kathi Appelt, co-author of Down Cut Shin Creek:
The
Pack Horse Librarians of Kentucky, about the Pack Horse Library Project
of
Eastern Kentucky, a Works Progress Administration program created during
the
Great Depression. The book documents the stories of the young librarians
who
circulated books by horseback to remote recesses of the Cumberland
Mountains. (6:00) The book is published by Harper Collins."
