MANY of the books in
Swiss Cottage Library Reserve Stock outdo us humans. Some are a hundred years
old and more, but are still at work, leaving the shelves and going into
borrowers’ homes like young book do. Admittedly, they have had cosmetic surgery
and been rebound. Some of the re-bindings have that delightfully old-fashioned and
hard-as-nails green or dark red covers. They’ll outlive me.
