Sentiments on the State of Libraries After the Election

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The recent reelection of President Donald Trump will likely result in continued multifaceted attacks upon libraries and librarians by partisan political operatives emboldenedby the election results. Libraries, librarians, and their partners must continue to repel all attempts to create an environment of censorship, whether through legal statutes or social intimidation, in order to preserve their critical role within our society as beacons of light that unite our communities with the luminescence of intellectual freedom and critical thinking.
