A. Rivera reviewed Free For All by Don Borchert
Review of 'Free For All' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
A pretty good book on what happens in our public libraries. Some moments are moving, and others are pretty funny. Public librarians today do everything from promoting reading to serving as social workers. I am a librarian, and I still find amazing the self-entitlement some clients bring to libraries, as if they could never do any wrong even when they are bold-face lying. That librarians manage to remain professional in the face of some people, to put it mildy, is simply amazing and proof that librarians and library workers are not valued enough given what we ask of them. Overall, a pretty good book about libraries today.
