You can celebrate this week (& beyond) in so many ways: -Get a library card/help a friend get one. -Explore the programs, books, library of things your local library has to offer. -Tell library workers how much their work means to you. -Tell Congress to oppose censorship & book bans! #libraries 2/3

Libro.fm and 40+ organizations representing parents, grassroots organizers, authors, librarians, booksellers, and publishers have signed a statement on the firing of Dr. Carla Hayden.⁠ 📣 Share & act now 📧 bit.ly/EmailHayden

Slides with a teal background. Copy reads: We condemn the unjust firing of Dr. Carla Hayden, who has served as Librarian of Congress since 2016. Dr. Hayden’s firing is an assault on our freedoms to access and pursue knowledge. ⁠

Slide with a teal background. Copy reads: Dr. Hayden has been a trailblazer, bringing new energy, joy, and perspective to the esteemed role. She was the first woman and the first African American to serve in the role. In the time she has served, she has been markedly respected for her impartial effectiveness and for opening the Library’s resources to all Americans.⁠

Slide with a team background. Copy reads: Now, Dr. Hayden becomes the first Librarian of Congress to be forced out since the 19th century for no other reason than to undermine the foundational principles of our democracy and erode public trust in our most robust institutions.⁠

This book was printed in 1973. "The old-time values of America--freedom, dignity, brotherhood--are great, but the present-day style of America--materialism, unrestrained development, bigotry--makes it a hard place to stomach" #booksky

“The sum total of every anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ bill is to make our existence illegal, to force us back into the closet," said Rep. Aime Wichtendahl. "If we want jobs or a place to live, we have to go back, is what they are telling us. Because the authors of these bills wish us every harm.”

TFW a library book has a long hold on it but you devour it quickly and return it early, hoping everyone after you in the queue gets a tiny bit of joy from getting their copy a little bit faster

“I think it’s abominable that we’re going to potentially be the first state in the nation to take away civil rights protections that already exist in our code,” Democratic Rep. Sami Scheetz told LV. Rep. Steve Holt, who introduced HSB 242, is also the chair of both committees that approved it.

Are you looking for an Audible alternative but not fully convinced yet on moving away? What if we told you all of your purchases support indie bookshops? Or that we are employee-owned and community driven? Let us know what questions you have about Libro.fm—we'd love to help make the switch easy 💓

I feel like we remove power from amazon by NOT TALKING ABOUT AMAZON. Mention the library. Mention the indie bookseller. Mention the direct stores. LINK to the publisher or the direct store or the author website. You don’t even have to bring up Amazon or link to them.
