Celebrate your freedom to read with a week of programs, activities, and resources from the library. This week is about appreciating our intellectual freedom and the ways in which books bring people together, allow individuals to see themselves in stories, and help us develop empathy and understanding for people from other backgrounds. 

The library’s celebration is in conjunction with the American Library Association (ALA) annual Banned Books Week, which spotlights current and historical attempts to censor books in libraries and schools. ALA’s week-long, nationwide event supports free and open access to books and information.
