Jane Austen knew books and reading. So, we need to trust her about the joys found in books and the importance of excellent libraries.

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book. I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.” ~Jane Austen 📚

What a fantastic story about communities around food and cooking as we get closer to Thanksgiving.

Cooking and literacy make a delicious combination.

While the internet can certainly be convenient, the library may be a better option for information-seeking.

Here’s why, when it comes to providing objective, vetted information about identity in a welcoming environment, the library wins!

Visit @EveryLibrary's website & sign the petition to stop two book ban bills from moving forward. House Bill 7661 and Senate Bill 4925 both threaten your freedom to read. https://t.co/nwXozexfyj

Libraries aren’t luxuries. They are public infrastructure for knowledge, opportunity, connection, and democracy.

Treat them like the essential institutions they are. Protect them. Fund them.

[Right to Read Ohio @RighttoReadOhio]

What if we like them all? A book on a shelf is a pretty sight but open and being read is absolutely beautiful!

Yes, but all days are for reading! Let's make a point of reading daily.

Book bans hurt everyone. Let's respect our differences and allow parents to decide for their children & adults to make their own reading choices. Let the freedom to read ring loudly!

People promoting book bans often say they’re a great way to prevent children from reading inappropriate materials.

However, bans prevent everyone from reading these materials and prevent kids from learning important insights about themselves.

Dan Patrick came for the books. Texas voters handed him the overdue notice.
Consider him weeded out.

This is all the more reason to support libraries through votes, donations, volunteering, and joining a Friends group. Our libraries need us.

"It is something of a truism in the library world that, when economic conditions worsen, people use libraries more. Patrons and librarians across the U.S. tell NPR they're seeing that pan out now."

A library card can save a household money, but the return goes far beyond any one person.

When we fund libraries, we invest in shared resources, trusted information, civic participation, and opportunities everyone can access.

Keep libraries public. Keep libraries funded.

[American Library Association @ALALibrary]

"...libraries are the beating hearts of our communities. What we borrow from them pales in comparison to what we keep. How often we pause to appreciate their bounty is up to us."

Great quote to touch on all the knowledge and imagination housed in your local library.

Libraries are wonderful places to find answers to your burning questions.

Does anyone else remember the times we had to go to the library in order to research answers to our questions?

[Right to Read Ohio @RighttoReadOhio]

Respect the knowledge of librarians and support libraries.
