Celebrate the freedom to read at our Banned Books Read-In—a welcoming, community gathering where readers come together to quietly enjoy banned and challenged books in shared solidarity. Whether you bring your own book or choose one from our display, your presence sends a powerful message: everyone deserves access to diverse stories and ideas. Enjoy a free audiobook from Libro.fm, connect with fellow book lovers, and take meaningful action through our Right to Read postcard campaign. Come read, reflect, and celebrate the stories that bring us together.
