I'm so glad I live in CT.

@MattLesser Hey, that's me! I'm the ED for the CT Library Consortium and we're going to do some pretty cool things to connect libraries statewide with that $5,000! Thanks for funding @CTHumanities and @CLCct!

@anniekjohn That is a super weird... blog post? Article? Opinion piece? Stream of consciousness?

[ellenthelibrarian @eapau]

@WTNH Absolutely, yes.

@ChrisMurphyCT Fund public libraries. They're the only third places where everyone is welcome. Warm in the winter, cool in the summer, open all day long, they're the living rooms of our communities fostering connection, empathy and understanding.

@ChrisMurphyCT Attempts at book banning is happening right here in CT at alarming rates. We appreciate your staff meeting with the library community to talk about these issues. Librarians are standing strong but we haven't seen something like this since McCarthyism.

@ChrisMurphyCT Libraries are a key piece to building strong communities. They're the only place in society where you can go and nothing is required of you. You don't need to buy something. You don't need to believe in a certain God or play a sport. Just come as you are and be with others.

More Connecticut? Yes, please.

Did you know that the document that mapped Connecticut’s original boundaries…wasn’t actually a map?

It was the Charter of 1662 & it granted CT lands all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Learn more about what else the Charter of 1662 established: https://t.co/Ciz1Qp7O9I

@whateversusan So do you think the library book banning attempts are going to die down now?

[ellenthelibrarian @eapau]

@GovNedLamont Did you know that its banned books week? Challenges to library materials are happening at unprecedented numbers right here in CT. These would-be censors are trying to effectively erase any information they don't believe in from our public and school libraries.

@eregan_ct @thedayct Super cool! Congratulations from East Hampton!

[ellenthelibrarian @eapau]

@ChrisMurphyCT Yes! Right? Small government except for what people can READ! Without the freedom to read, democracy will die.

Music lessons are expensive. Libraries level the playing field. Violin lessons for kids at the library https://t.co/1tMqgtUnYt via @thedayct
