Down in the library yesterday pulling out volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica to check certain dates and publications. I enjoy the experience of leafing through the bulky volumes, catching sight of other entries, the quiet of the room, the rhythm of getting up-going to the shelf-sitting down.

I catch myself thinking how this has become a rare activity (and pleasure).

A depressing thought.
