Late September will mark the 12th year that book lovers of all ages have gathered in Washington, DC to celebrate the written word of The Library of Congress National Book Festival. The festival, which is free and open to the public, will be 2 days this year, Saturday, September 22nd, and Sunday, September 23rd, 2012.

Mr. Thompson also is the author of the graphic novels, "Good-bye, Chunky Rice," "Blankets," and "Carnet de Voyage." Thank you so much for joining us. >> Craig Thompson: Thank you, Jennifer. It's a pleasure to be here. >> Could you tell us a bit about how you got into not just novel writing, but graphic novel writing? Are you an author who happens to draw beautifully, or an artist with a story to tell? >> Craig Thompson: Well, as a child I was really into comic books, and in a sort of natural adult progression fell out of love with the medium around high school, and was really obsessed with film and then animation, and was sort of mapping out possible career animation, and became disillusioned with that for a number of reasons.

  • Bringing Thomas Jefferson's Libraries to Life
    Bringing Thomas Jefferson’s Libraries to Life by Michael Wormser, MSC Student At a dinner in 1962 honoring Noble Prize winners, President John F. Kennedy said it was “the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception when Thomas Jefferson dined alone,” noting some of our Third president’s remarkable skills and achievements and great intellect. Nowhere is that intellect better reflected than in Jefferson’s collections of books, a pursuit that dominated his adult life. The library Jefferson assembled at Monticello—-and the classification system he devised for them based on Francis Bacon’s The Advancement of Learning grouping all human ​ ​ knowledge in the three faculties of: Memory, Reason and Imagination—-reflected nothing less than “a blueprint of his mind,” in the words of historian Arthur E. Bestor. More than just a means of locating individual books in his library, Jefferson’s classification system became a detailed guide showing where his books belonged, as he viewed them, within the whole expanse of human knowledge. His books were a working library. For Jefferson, books were valued for their utility in acquiring knowledge. He was not building a great collection as a hobby. There were no subjects that lay outside Jefferson’s collecting interests, from the law, representing his profession, history, both ancient and modern, foreign relations, politics and governance, to philosophy and religion, literature, including fiction, poetry, criticism and biography, art and architecture, exploration, native Americans and their languages, American flora and fauna, geography, geology, agriculture and plant propagation, gardening and landscaping, mathematics, medicine, astronomy and other sciences including chemistry, a subject not known to Bacon.
