📚 It’s Banned Books Week! 📚

Banned Books Week is a time to celebrate the freedom to read and recognize the importance of access to a wide variety of ideas, stories, and perspectives.

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to explore books and choose what they want to read. And if we don’t have a book in-house that you’d like to read, don’t worry! Through our resource-sharing program, we can request and borrow books from other libraries!

So stop by your local library and discover something new—or revisit a book you love! ❤️📖
