Free For All: The Public Library
Thursday, June 5th 5:00 PM
Redding Library 1100 Parkview Ave, Redding, CA 96001
Free for All: The Public Library tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple idea happen. From the pioneering women behind the “Free Library Movement” to today's librarians who continue to serve the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans, meet those who created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all.
As part of this special screening, join us for a meet-and-greet with Julia Parsons, the newly appointed Library Director for the Shasta Public Libraries. Julia brings a wealth of experience and a deep passion for community engagement and literacy. Come meet Julia and learn more about her vision for the library system!
