"September is “Library Card Sign-Up Month.” It is not widely known or celebrated, but it should be. The tenor of our times requires those of us who understand the power of books to get involved. The children of today need our help." - Alice Faye Duncan
Local libraries can save democracy, one reader at a time
The American Library Association reports there were more than 1,200 attempted book bans in 2022, compared to 700 in 2021 and 200 in 2020.
