“Our libraries serve the precious liberties of our nation: freedom of inquiry, freedom of the spoken and the written word, freedom of exchange of ideas. Upon these clear principles, democracy depends for its very life, for they are the greatest sources of knowledge and enlightenment. And knowledge — full unfettered knowledge of its own heritage, of freedom’s enemies, of the whole world of men and ideas — this knowledge is a free people’s surest strength...
