A librarian was fired for refusing to hide LGBTQ+ books from kids. Then something amazing happened. PEN America called her termination “emblematic of the fight against censorship and suppression.”

Librarians are serious about access to books. Go visit your library, they have a lot to offer. Download their app, borrow music, movies, video games, board games, support local library funding.
