Book bans can escalate into laws threatening librarians with arrest. Seventeen states have pursued measures that would criminalize librarianship.
Arkansas was the most recent example.
We cannot let fear of political retaliation determine what reaches library shelves.

BREAKING: Book banning extremist group “Moms For Liberty” LOST ALL 31 of their races.
Moms for Liberty is now 0-59 in contested school board races since 2023.
This is what happens when communities have had enough and say NO to book bans!

If there is a public library nearby to you, & you have never been, please go; it’s free. You can sit, relax, & use wifi without being chased away. We want you there. You can connect with others. Learn a new skill. Practice your English. Get help with your reading in a safe place.

Making public policy and culture more family friendly means including all families, including those who do not look like yours.

Gen Z is bringing libraries back! 📚✨
Think libraries are outdated?
Gen Z begs to differ!
Libraries have become the ultimate hangout spot, offering free resources, study spaces, and even content creation hubs for young people.

How long will it take before Republicans realize that running on banning books is electoral kryptonite? The evidence at this point is overwhelming.

I'm assuming it's the "book club" for the city? The last city I lived in did this. The point is to have something to discuss with your neighbors. I'm against censorship of any kind, but I truly believe the library should be trying to bring people together in these dangerous times
