This story from the USA reminds me of the Ray Bradbury book, 'Fahrenheit 451' where all books are "outlawed" and "firemen" burn any that are found, while brave citizens try to save some. Books being saved against a tide of a civilisation that no longer values them. Sound familiar? …. how much more noble can you get?
In the East Lake County library system in Florida, books not taken out enough (as deemed by a computer algorithm), are destroyed …. So a brave band of brothers (and sisters one assumes), determined to save them by reading them regularly.
