Event Details

Join us for a screening of the 2025 documentary, 'The Librarians,' with a panel discussion to follow.

"When lawmakers seek to review a list of books, librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S., librarians face the impact of uniting against library collection standards that include restrictions on race-related and LGBTQIA+ content. Drawing on historical context, 'The Librarians' explores the broader implications for education and public life."
