Heroes of Hush!

Some heroes dive on hand grenades. Some heroes rush into burning buildings and save children. Some heroes, though, are librarians. Seriously, if you're interested in reading about guardians of the intellect, go read that article about some librarians who have done the right thing.

Then, after reading that article, go read about Kansas City's Coolest Librarian (a unanimous selection by the Kansas City Librarian Ranking Society, for 4 years in a row now), Alicia. She reads and reviews more books than anybody I can imagine. She's my librarian hero.
