Libraries help debuts and midlist authors have careers. If people had to pay money for every book they wanted to read, they'd buy a lot fewer books, and they'd likely stick with what they already knew. Borrowing from the library lets you try new authors for free. Then you can buy what you love.

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.
