Documentary Screening: "Free for All: The Public Library"

In partnership with WETA, join the library for the PBS documentary, "Free for All: The Public Library."
Directed by Dawn Logsdon and Lucie Faulknor, the documentary tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple idea happen. From women behind the "Free Library Movement," to today's librarians who service the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans, meet those who created a civic institution where everything is free, and the doors are open to all.
Film run time: 90 minutes.
Light refreshments will be served starting at 5:45 pm.
REGISTRATION STRONGLY ENCOURAGED. First-come, first-served seating. By registering you will receive event updates.
