Since 1982, libraries nationwide have defended access to information by drawing attention to threats against the right to read. The Libraries believe that access to high quality information, diverse viewpoints and information literacy are some of the ways that we can support and promote a robust democracy. We encourage free speech, thoughtful discourse and research that informs policy and serves the public good.
