Join us for a screening of The Librarians, a powerful 2025 documentary directed by Kim A. Snyder. This Indie Lens Pop-Up film shines a light on the national conversation around access to books and ideas in schools and public libraries—and on the librarians who find themselves defending the freedom to read.
When Texas lawmakers seek to review a list of books, librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S., library professionals are uniting in response to new collection standards that restrict materials related to race and LGBTQIA+ themes. The Librarians tells their stories—of courage, community, and conviction—as they stand up for access to information and the role of libraries in a democratic society.
A discussion will follow the screening to reflect on what these issues mean for our own community.
Free and open to all.
