Colbert Nembhard

Friday November 25th New York Times wrote about a Bronx librarian, Colbert Nembhard, a librarian, whose mission it is to help homeless children develop a love of books. How can that happen when these same children do not even have a home?. At the Crotona Inn Homeless shelter, he has opened a library, so books can be a constant in these young children's lives. In eight years he has signed on countless children and parents for library cards. The children love him and--as far as I am concerned--this is the meaning of the word, hero.
