“...there are few pleasures comparable to that of associating continually with curious and vigorous young minds, and aiding them in realizing their ideals.”

Amazing how visionary the early librarians were. In that same issue, Melvil Dewey wrote something very similar to, "The library is a school, and a librarian is a teacher." (I can find the direct quote if it interests you!)
