The Keepers of the Library
The Keepers of the Library | Glenn Cooper
7 posts | 14 read | 4 to read
Prophecy is prologue England, 1775. An ambitious American pushes his expedition onward despite dire warnings from the locals. But what Benjamin Franklin discovers on the Isle of Wight isn't just superstition. It's a secret with the power to save the worldor destroy it. In less than four hundred days, most of the world's population will be dead. Nobody knows why, only when: February 9, 2027. Retired FBI Special Agent Will Piper is one of the few who will live "Beyond the Horizon." Fifteen years ago, he revealed the prophecy to the world after the hunt for a madman led him to the mystical Library of Vectis, now housed at Area 51, in an unmarked location in the Nevada desert. Will is determined to live out his days in the Florida sun . . . even as the world sinks into hedonism and despair . . . even as the Doomsday Killer's ominous calling cards resurface . . . until the apocalypse threatens the one thing Will won't compromise on: his own flesh and blood.

I LOVE working at the library. I especially love the closing shift, when the patrons have all gone home and its just me and the quiet and the books. There is something about being surrounded by thousands of books and silence that makes one feel so safe and cozy. 😊💕📚 #librarylove

I was interviewed about libraries by a nationally-recognized blog ☺️😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! I hope my answers do the library and general biblio-community proud. It's published in tandem with Ridgewood, NJ's, major library renovation, which was about to get underway and is rather controversial since it reduces space for books.

Here's the link: http://theridgewoodblog.net/the-ridgewood-blog-an-interview-with-a-librarian/

TheFunkyBookworm Bravo! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 6y
Weaponxgirl Well done 👍 this argument keeps coming up in the uk too, with some people saying that libraries need to focus less on the books and more on the Internet and being community spaces is this what they are planning with your renovations? 6y
TiredLibrarian @MrBook Your comments are excellent. But why did the interviewer not ask you about the proposed renovation (unless it was agreed in advance that you wouldn't comment on that)? Also, the blog is really poorly written. But kudos for your contribution! 6y

SledgeReader I started down this road in 2007 seeking funding for a new library building. The process started back again in 2011. Our brand new 25,000sf facility opened in January of this year. @MrBook let me know if you want to swap stories! 6y
