Authors on the Importance of Librarians

Book bans are a violation of our right to learn.

If you want to keep libraries free from censorship, join these authors in thanking a librarian for making books - all books, even those whose themes or content may offend powerful political interests - available in our communities.

Librarians should have a day if they don’t already!
Libraries and librarians were for me, and have been a safe space for so much of society. That’s why they were even originally funded in most towns in the olden days (look it up!)
They, and teachers, are really getting shat upon lately and it’s ridiculous for regular people.

Don’t mind if they are appropriate but if they’re showing them men having annul sex or two woman having sex or anybody having sex to little ones, those books are not appropriate. If the child who is now maybe 5th or 6th grade when we start learning about our bodies and the changes that are going to be taking place and it has parent approval, I see no problem with that. BUT until that parent gives approval, HANDS OFF THE CHILD!!!!
