It’s always surprising when vandals and thieves leave behind the most valuable thing in a room but still a surprise when ‘educators’ do it. Just think how much learning follows from simply reading and understanding history.
People are no longer taught that reading is a skill worth learning. Just ask AI for the information at a 6th grade level. Books are quickly becoming obsolete in our computer driven world. Opinions and "facts" are driven by propaganda, not from knowledge gained by reading books. Fahrenheit 451 was not fiction, only ahead of it's time in the F.U.S.A.

A canticle for Lebowitz comes to mind.
