Em tempos de "obamamania" eis uma parte do discurso proferido por Barack Obama no congresso da American Library Association, em 2005, com o título "Literacy and Education in a 21st-Century Economy"
"More than a building that houses books and data, the library has always been a window to a larger world - a place where we've always come to discover big ideas and profound concepts that help move the American story forward."
