  25. Hey New Yorkers (the city): Brooklyn Public Library requests your help in maintaining funding. Mayor Adams' fascist budget cuts have already strained libraries to their limits, leading to reductions in hours and services offered. They're asking us to sign an open letter to city leaders in support of library funding.

  29. Books Unbanned | The Seattle Public Library

    This brilliant program makes #ebooks and #audiobooks available to teens and young adults anywhere in the country. It was started by #brooklynpubliclibrary and #seattlepubliclibrary is the second one to join in helping kids and young people everywhere access books being banned by the religious right.

    I hate that it has to exist. I love that it does.

    If you know or are a young person living somewhere where books are getting banned because adults are afraid of change, follow the link and get your free card to private access to all the books.
