Books have always given us somewhere to go.Into lives we haven’t lived. Ideas we haven’t considered. Experiences we don’t understand yet. Stories that make us feel seen, stories that make us uncomfortable, and sometimes, stories that change our minds entirely.
That’s why we believe books are bridges. And bridges are meant to be crossed.
This Banned Books Week, we’re inviting Jefferson City to read freely.
Throughout the week there will be opportunities to read, discover, talk, and participate, including:
• Books, Bans + Belonging: A Community Conversation
• Bookseller × Librarian Picks
• Community Reader Portraits
• Community Read-In with MRRL
• Drag Storytime
• Read Freely Passport
• Little Free Library Reveal
• Banned + Challenged Books
• Limited-Edition Merch
• + more
Because reading freely means making room for disagreement, discovery, and the freedom to decide for ourselves.
