"The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) has launched ASK IT!, a moderated forum and 
free online resource designed to model the scientific process. Students are invited 
to identify and formulate a scientific question, expand upon an existing question, 
or pose possible answers to questions posted on the forum. Students also can vote 
for the questions they would like to see answered by an expert in the field, and 
scientists from around the country will post responses to selected student 
inquiries. ASK IT! creates an online community that encourages logical thinking, 
problem solving, collaboration, and inquiry-based learning."

"Ten guards and the warden couldn't have torn me out of those books. Months passed 
without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in 
my life." - Malcolm X 
 
"Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the 
libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD 
 
"The best morals kids get from any book is just the capacity to empathize with 
other people, to care about the characters and their feelings. So you don't have to 
write a preachy book to do that. You just have to make it a fun book with 
characters they care about, and they will become better people as a result." - 
Louis Sachar
