‘If you really can't figure out which political party or which politician to vote for, just ask if they're on the side of libraries.
Are they voting to fund their libraries?
Are they voting to keep them free?
Then vote for those guys.
They're probably the good guys.
And by the same token, the book burners, the book banners, they're probably the bad guys.’
Neil Gaiman is a fierce supporter of libraries. The author of American Gods, Neverwhere, Good Omens, The Sandman, Coraline, and so many more has had a lifelong love affair with reading. And he credits librarians for fostering his curiosity about books and learning at a young age. Gaiman spoke with I Love Libraries recently about libraries, comic books, book banning in the U.S., movies, and more.
