One librarian talks about the books he read... The new millennium is the age of computers, but also of opinion and point
of view. People still read books, but now they want to answer back, to
mentally scribble the margins. The Lone Reader gives voice to this urge.
Book covers are linked to library catalog. *These short essays do not represent the opinion of the library.
