My heart goes out to family and friends of ALSC Vice President Kate McClelland and Kathy Krasniewicz, who were killed in a hit-and-run accident on their way to the airport after leaving ALA. American children's literature is rocked by the news.

I met Kathy at ALA Anaheim last summer. She was a delight, and she spoke of Kate, who was also clearly a marvelous person. The outpouring of grief is all over the Internet. My heart joins yours.

Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins. The Rule is that no Utterance has anything whatsoever to do with the section it precedes. Nor, of course, has it anything to do with Gnomes.
