Libraries Delivering Life-Saving Information

"Libraries Delivering Life-Saving Information." Democrat & Chronicle / Mark Hare.
New York: Democrat & Chronicle Online, December 19th 2010.

"Libraries have long been about more than books, but in the city they now deliver life support in the shape of information. Kids seek homework assistance from high school tutors. Some libraries offer adults help acquiring the basic literacy skills they need to undertake a GED program — sometimes in libraries with the help of volunteer teachers."
