Event Details

The Librarians is generating national buzz! This timely and thought-provoking film explores the evolving role of librarians across the United States and how local book review policies are shaping communities and influencing public discourse. 

Through personal stories and historical context, the film illuminates the challenges and triumphs of those who stand at the intersection of access, education, and freedom of information. 

A short panel discussion will follow with action points and ways to support local libraries.
