[LM_NET] Share: NPR story about libraries

[Kris Detmer <Kdetmer@COLUMBIA.K12.MO.US>]

On Morning Edition this morning they had a wonderful StoryCorps excerpt about a 
young African-American boy's library experience in the late 1950s.  (And as a bet 
of a rebel myself, I appreciated the lesson about how sometimes it's better to NOT 
enforce the rules!)

When I get a little money, I buy books; and, if any is left, I buy food and 
clothes."
