A scene from our film, “Free for All: The Public Library“ has become a meme! Watch the whole film on the Independent Lens series with PBS Passport or host a screening through @KinemaHQ Support public media and public libraries. Thanks @RasberryRazz for the shout out!

Watching a PBS doc on the American Library and had to pause to rewind this library director's reaction to 50 Shades of Grey being one of the most popular titles for her patrons.



Our film is on PBS right now streaming. Taking away funding would immeasurably hurt vital services in our communities – education, journalism, emergency alerts, and local connection. Speak out before it’s too late @MyPublicMedia: bit.ly/3YMxiXB #ProtectMyPublicMedia

And he loved libraries!

“Neither love nor terror makes one blind: indifference makes one blind.” Today is the centennial of the birth of writer and activist James Baldwin. His words continue to light up and resonate today. The @librarycongress has audio recordings of Baldwin. loc.gov/item/88752473/

You have to love this!

At the library, we understand that the future has room for the best ideas of the past. Two free public telephones are now available in the lobby of the Downtown Library. 5 minute time limit, outgoing calls only. What time is it? Call the US Naval Observatory at 1-202-762-1401!
