Join BPL staff and supporters for a free public screening of The Librarians documentary, along with an open conversation on libraries and freedom of expression.
The Librarians is a documentary film that debuted at Sundance Film Festival in 2025, directed and produced by Kim A. Snyder: "As an unprecedented wave of book banning is sparked in Texas, Florida, and beyond, librarians under siege join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy."
