The Librarians is a powerful and timely documentary exploring the growing battle over book bans in America. The film follows librarians who find themselves on the front lines of a national debate over censorship, education, and intellectual freedom. As efforts to remove books from schools and public libraries intensify, these dedicated professionals risk their careers and face personal threats while defending the freedom to read.
Both compelling and thought-provoking, The Librarians raises urgent questions about who decides what we can read, whose stories are told, and the importance of protecting access to diverse ideas.
The screening will be followed by a discussion with Amy Penwell, President-Elect of the New Jersey Association of School Librarians.
