&lt;p&gt;I’d be waiting for it to come out in paperback…and to show up at the used book store. ‘Cause sometimes you just can’t wait.

I wouldn’t be as literate as I am, I wouldn’t be so joyful. I have learnt so much from the words printed in the free books I can loan! &lt;br/&gt;and now, being a teenager, having the quiet and clean place to have sanctuary in is bliss. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Without my library I’d never be able to afford to read so many new books so quickly!  An incredible, unbelievable gift!  Emily grew up using the Queensboro Library (Central branch pictured above)—the biggest in America.  Now her children are using one of the smallest.  They are all among the top wonders of our nation.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20383978221</link><guid>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20383978221</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Apr 2012 21:35:00 -0400</pubDate><category>withoutmylibrary</category><category>submission</category></item><item><title>Monte Belmonte!</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1v6imO7Mb1rsb3qso1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Monte Belmonte!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20357317587</link><guid>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20357317587</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Apr 2012 14:11:10 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Aric says:

&lt;p&gt;Tampa: Many have that place they need to escape as part of growing up. Physically, I needed to escape Tampa, FL, where I grew up, to pursue music and other artistic things elsewhere. More importantly, though, I needed to escape a metaphorical Tampa where I felt constrained personally and intellectually. Essential to this escape was my little rural library.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20353165732</link><guid>http://mnspearlibrary.tumblr.com/post/20353165732</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Apr 2012 12:27:00 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
