Here's a Carnegie library in a small Illinois farm town.
I became friends with the librarian as I so frequently visited the library. I also worked there in high school.
I loved that library, and I love my New England library as well.
Public libraries are public good!

The White House March 2025 Executive Order to eliminate the Institute of Museum and Library Services poses not only an existential threat to the institution of libraries and staff, but it risks worsening the childhoods of a whole generation.

More than two dozen House Democrats are demanding that Pete Hegseth immediately halt what they say is an unconstitutional and "Orwellian" purge of books in K-12 schools run by the Defense Dept ― an effort aimed at erasing diversity and LGBTQ+ people. www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...
Military Children Reportedly Barred From Library Books In 'Orwellian' Book Purges
It is "plainly" unconstitutional for Defense Department-run K-12 schools to ban books for political reasons, said 26 lawmakers.

Fellow Iowans,

I want to share what is being taken away from us if the executive order to dismantle the Institute of Museum & Library Services is signed.

Please share your voice to stop this and encourage others to do so here:
