A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources, made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing.[1] It provides physical or digital access to material, and may be a physical building or room, or a virtual space, or both.[2] A library's collection can include books, periodicals, newspapers, manuscripts, films, maps, prints, documents, microform, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases, and other formats. Libraries range in size from a few shelves of books to several million items. In Latin and Greek, the idea of a bookcase is represented by Bibliotheca and Bibliothēkē (Greek: βιβλιοθήκη): derivatives of these mean library in many modern languages, e.g. French bibliothèque.

The first libraries consisted of archives of the earliest form of writing—the clay tablets in cuneiform script discovered in Sumer, some dating back to 2600 BC. Private or personal libraries made up of written books appeared in classical Greece in the 5th century BC. In the 6th century, at the very close of the Classical period, the great libraries of the Mediterranean world remained those of Constantinople and Alexandria. The 21st Century has its own Library of Alexandria and global warming is threatening to burn it down. This is probably the greatest threat to science and no one is talking about it. Now is the time to courageously speak the truth about our planetary crisis. The global civilization that arose in the last 500 years now teeters on the brink of collapse. It’s structural fragility can be seen in the patterns of rising inequality, systemic political corruption, and an unraveling biosphere. Humanity is on the brink of another Dark Age and we had better prepare our knowledge stores for what is coming in the near future. “Industrial Capitalism” is a misnomer. The industrial revolution was a direct consequence of the development of capitalism, and all capitalist societies quickly become industrial.

"Capitalism" refers to a political and economic system that was developed in Europe and America during the Enlightenment. It is characterized by private ownership of property, rather than state control. More fundamentally, it rests on the Enlightenment principle of Individual Rights, in which the unit of moral and political value is each individual. As the American philosopher Ayn Rand explains this,

Capitalism is a social system based on the recognition of individual rights, including property rights, in which all property is privately owned.The recognition of individual rights entails the banishment of physical force from human relationships: basically, rights can be violated only by means of force. In a capitalist society, no man or group may initiate the use of physical force against others. The only function of the government, in such a society, is the task of protecting man’s rights, i.e., the task of protecting him from physical force; the government acts as the agent of man’s right of self-defense, and may use force only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use; thus the government is the means of placing the retaliatory use of force under objective control.

In this regard we must embrace socialism and caring for one another in historical journals that we possess from clay writing to papyrus reeds and modern books. As I have written elsewhere, the climate doomsday already happened. It is now 2017 — nearly thirty years since the first Congressional hearing on global warming in 1988 — and nothing has been done to halt the destruction of the Earth’s planetary stability. According to the Stockholm Resilience Institute, we have now passed at least four of the nine “planetary boundaries” that define a safe operating statics for our global economy. Add to this things like the giant financial bubble on the verge of bursting and we are in serious trouble indeed. We are now fully in collapse and it is very unlikely to be avoided. Actions that would have taken us a different course were needed decades ago. Historians, if they exist in the future, will write about the tragic failures of leadership in this unique period in time. Or the custodians of this precious gem. There are complicating factors like the thermal inertia of the world ocean that no one seems to be talking about either. Heat pumped into the atmosphere today will take 40 years to absorb (a powerful lag time that doesn’t get any of the attention it deserves) and the ocean will hold this heat in for several hundred years (estimates range from 300 to 1000).This can be associated to a little fact known to global warming. Let this sink in. All the crazy extreme weather we are experiencing now is only being impacted by a global ocean warmed by pollution released in the early 1980’s. Even if we stop releasing greenhouse gases right now, we will continue to see an increase of harms for many decades to come. This is how serious our current predicament is. Back to the 21st Century Library of Alexandria. We have our own sacred and irreplaceable body of knowledge that is now at risk of destruction by ideological forces. The principle ideology is laissez-faire neoliberal economics that treats the environment as external to market functions and gives it a value of zero in its accounting books.

Ideological forces threaten the destruction of modern scientific knowledge. Stated plainly, the religious cult of modern economics is destroying our civilization. When a civilization collapses, the elites go down with it — including those who were trained in the advanced educational practices ranging from science and medicine to technology and all the technical skills that accompany them. We are about to lose all of our progress in science and technology. Due to lack of proper record. In the last few months, I have been re-evaluating my mission in life. No longer am I trying to avert disaster (it is too late for that now). Instead I see all that is at risk of being lost through half a century of destabilization and collapse. Humanity is on a global “Easter Island” and we are cutting down all our life-giving trees with all the efficiencies that 21st Century artificial intelligence and robotics can provide. The look and feel of science could still fully embrace the paradigm of living systems in the future. But it must survive the turmoil of a collapsing civilization that is now so confused about basic facts that it has completely lost any capacity for discernment. Just as the librarians in Alexandria grasped at as many sacred scrolls as they could carry in their arms, those of us who value knowledge must quickly and decisively build protective storehouses for what has been learned in the last thousand years. This is a task I take up with honor and full dedication. It is something that now must be done for the next generations or everyone alive today. Time is of the essence. Every moment of delay will have consequences. What will you do to protect and preserve science? Onward, fellow humans. Let’s do this before it’s too late.To salvage the situation. "Library ... collection of books, public or private; room or building where these are kept; similar collection of films, records, computer routines, etc. or place where they are kept; series of books issued in similar bindings as set."--Allen, R. E., ed. (1984) The Pocket Oxford Dictionary of Current English. Oxford: Clarendon Press; Dennis ikua
