Books unite us, censorship divides us!

Books unite us. Books encourage boundless exploration and allow readers to spread their wings. Stories give flight to new ideas and perspectives. Reading—especially books that set us free—expands our worldview. Censorship, on the other hand, locks away our freedom and divides us from humanity in our own cages.

Raise awareness about frequently challenged books and the freedom to read at our branch with several different activities, from visiting authors to history of censorship. Drop by the branch to see what's happening today!
