Use Of Public Libraries Is One Of Our Greatest Freedoms

  • Monday, April 7, 2025

I believe that our library ranks as one of the two most important public institutions that we as a community support. Public schools rank number one in my mind.

The branches of our library host creative educational events, language classes, voter registration, free Wi-Fi, job hunting help, homework support, digital access and safe spaces. They represent a source of social and intellectual enrichment opportunity. They represent a safe place for the exploration of ideas.

The use of our public library is one of our greatest freedoms.  Let us proudly continue its support.
