Quotable Book Lover




Random number between 1 and 241, page 138 of the Quotable Book Lover by Ben Jacobs and Helena Hjalmarsson, editors, are three quotes on literacy by Jerome Bruner, J.D. Salinger, and Mortimer J. Adler. This book's chapter on literacy, pages 129 to 140, also included quotes from 11 other authors.

Sometime in November 2013, text of previously unpublished works by J.D. Salinger was rumored uploaded on internet file sharing sites. The upload included "The Ocean Full of Bowling Balls," reportedly the prequel for Catcher in the Rye.

The month of November is “Library and Information Services (LIS) Month” per Presidential Proclamation No. 837 signed on November 19, 1991 by former President Corazon C. Aquino.

This month in liwaliw Pages, titles pre-selected from my home library are those found under the 000 class of the Dewey Decimal System, or under computer science, information and general works. Check out this title on my Library Thing.
