President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders.

Read ALA's full response: www.ala.org/news/2025/03...
ALA response to White House assault on IMLS To dismiss the mission of an agency that advances opportunity and learning is to dismiss the aspirations and everyday needs of millions of Americans. And those who will feel that loss most keenly live in rural communities.  As seedbeds of literacy and innovation, our nation’s 125,000 public, school, academic and special libraries deserve more, not less support. Libraries translate 0.003% of the federal budget into programs and services used by more than 1.2 billion people every year.

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them.

Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is.

Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

Tagging #booksky! Anyone know if any other CT bookstores are on Bsky yet?

Asking again, given how many new accounts have opened in the last month or so: are there any other CT bookstores on here besides us and @byrdbrainct.bsky.social? I'd love to create a CT starter pack, but it requires at least I think 5 or 6 other accounts to do so.

If you don't know, BINC is the bookselling industry charity that helps booksellers recover from financial crises. Given the disasters that have hit multiple parts of the country in recent months, their help will be needed more than ever.
