Thank you Adrienne, for this lovely and insightful article. The library is such a wonderful metaphor of a human life. My Dad was a writer and a Librarian and passed away in June this year. It will be six months since Dad passed away on Christmas Day this year 2023.

I also created a virtual Museum for my father, Melvyn Brown.
