In the wake of the NYPD’s destruction seizure* of the 5,000+ volumes comprising the OWS Library last night, it’s important to remember: Even burning books can’t stop ideas from catching fire.
*Updated 8pm 11/15 to reflect the report that the books are safely stored. Still, the sentiment stands.
**UPDATED 3pm 11/16: What books were returned have been greatly damaged.
***Updated 9pm 11/16: Mediabistro reports the library has once more been removed by NYPD from Zuccotti Park
