One Night at the Library

I guess I'm having an emotional night....I'm at work, at the library, and a boy, who looked to be about 10 or 11 years old, came up to ask if I knew how to make the computer underline something. So I went over to where he was working, and he showed me the problem-- he was supposed to be underlining items in a bibliography, but didn't know how. I showed him how to highlight an item, and then to find the "U" button to underline, and his whole face just lit up--he was so grateful. Then his mom, who was here with him, just lit up with smiles, too, and was so thankful. I feel quite sure that this family does not have the resources to own a computer. I don't know, it just left me feeling choked up---it's so easy to take everything we have for granted, and to just assume that everyone out there has access to the same things we do. Then you meet a boy, and his mom, who come to the public library so that he can type his papers, and who don't know how to navigate this technological world, and are so grateful for even a tiny little bit of assistance.....let's not forget that these people are out there, and that they depend on their public library...
