Neil Gaiman on the DPL situation

Neil Gaiman, a strong defender of comics in all their forms has weighed in on the Denver Public Library situation. The best part of his opinion is:

"Most libraries are smart enough to keep the graphic novels for kids in the children's sections, while putting the ones that aren't for kids, like Sandman or Transmet, in with Graphic Novels, which is Not In the Children's shelves. This is because most librarians are sane. You have to get a long way down the article before you notice there actually people (oddly enough, librarians) saying sane things..."

He's coming to town for a book signing in September. I'll be shaking his hand and thanking him specifically for this.
