The library is not a shrine for the worship of books. It is not a temple
where literary incense must be burned or where one's devotion to the bound
book is expressed in ritual. A library, to modify the famous metaphor of
Socrates, should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas - a place where
history comes to life. Norman Cousins

I need your opinion! I am incensed at the moment because of Accelerated
Reader testing. Today is the cut-off day for the six weeks, and I have
found several 7th graders in here reading and taking tests on 1 and 2
point books. What do you think? Should I completely remove the books
and tests? Should I calm down and allow this? I want to just take them
off the shelves now but realize the lower-level kids could benefit from
them. Please help calm me down!
