Capitola Branch

Ow Family Community Room - AFTER HOURS

In the film, Librarians across the U.S. examine how book review policies are shaping their communities. Virtual appearance with one of the filmmakers will commence after the screening.

Celebrate National Library Week with us as we explore the current state of censorship in the U.S. happening in Libraries. When Texas lawmakers seek to review a list of books, librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S., librarians face the impact of uniting against library collection standards that include restrictions on race-related and LGBTQIA+ content. Drawing on historical context, The Librarians explores the broader implications for education and public life.

Join us for light refreshments and a virtual visit with one of the filmmakers after the screening. Library Director Christopher Platt leads the discussion. Registration is recommended, and walk-ins are welcome.
