A nod to librarians from Time Magazine |

In their January 9, 2012 issue, Time Magazine published a matrix showing what we fear/don’t fear and what is dangerous/not dangerous. Among the four things deemed “not dangerous” and “don’t fear” are hugs, teddy bears, money, and LIBRARIANS. ”In times of stress, we take comfort in trusted authorities.” So if you’re stressed out, come visit the Monrovia Public Library. Who knows, you may even get a hug from a friendly librarian!
