"Neil Gaiman on librarians as knowledge navigators over time."And information was hard to find. And it was hard to find because it was like a flower growing in a desert " you had a long way to walk, but a librarian could take you to the flower. Now it's more like flowers growing in the Amazon jungle and you're trying to find a specific flower, Gaiman said.

And librarians know what they're doing."
