When Dominique Trevino of Denver went into labor on a city bus recently, her fellow rider pointed her to a public resource she hadn't planned on, the library. While a security guard made space for Trevino near the doorway, employees called an ambulance, but by the time EMTs arrived, Trevino had already given birth. Mother and daughter are both doing well, in a real hospital. Library staff celebrated the first birth in their branch by giving the mother a tote bag containing children's books and a library card for the little reader-to-be. Details are here.--David E
