Indie Lens Pop-Up, presented by ITVS, INDEPENDENT LENS, and Brodhead Memorial Public Library will host an event featuring a shortened, preview version of “Free for All: The Public Library” and a panel discussion with Stuart Bisbee and Sarah Carpenter. “Free for All: The Public Library” tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all. Registration not required, but encouraged: https://engagedpatrons.org/EventsExtended.cfm?SiteID=9504&EventID=555319&PK=
The public library is one of America’s most valued yet endangered institutions. Director Dawn Logsdon travels the United States, discovering historic and modern-day figures, especially women, who contributed to the library’s integral position within democracy. “Free for All: The Public Library” chronicles the evolution of the nation’s public libraries, tracing the battles over who can enter, what belongs there, and who makes these decisions, while exploring how public commons are defined and defended.
