from Brewitt Neighborhood Library, Long Beach Public Library
In these days, when libraries are asked to do still more with even less, where does an overworked librarian go to recharge? To the Zen Cart, where he or she can meditate on swirling patterns in the sand garden, imagine a restful break under the bonsai tree, dispel negative energies with the gong, or just contemplate the higher wisdom of the Buddha. A few minutes with the Zen Cart, and then you will be able to once again face that monthly report, or shrinking book budget, or that fifth grader who needs a 200 page autobiography.
