I’ll never tire of repeating my belief that public libraries can embody the democratic ideal more broadly and fully than any other public institution. When a kid gets a library card, they receive civic standing. Crucially, in my network, full patron privacy. Help us defend this. 📚
I’m a public librarian in a degenerating democracy, and I am pleading: Care about your library. Use it. See what programs and events it offers. And pay attention to its governing body. See who the trustees are. Consider running yourself. Libraries will need all the community support they can get. 📚
