“For me, literacy means freedom. For the individual and for society.”
“So read the books they're banning, that's where the good stuff is! If they don't want you to read it, there's a reason why.”

Image is of author Judy Blume. Text reads: "It's not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship. As always, young readers will be the real losers."
Happy birthday Judy Blume ❤

Three women at a conference booth smiling at the camera. The two women on either side hold copies of the picture book “I’M BUSY,” featuring a pink flamingo and a child on the cover; the woman in the center sits behind a table with pens and a water bottle. Booth displays and attendees are visible in the background. Text at the bottom reads: “Photo courtesy Tracey Biel (IG: @traceybielphoto).”

Thanks to S&S Canada @simonschusterca.bsky.social for this photo from #OLASC; such a joy chatting with librarians. Librarians are my heroes.
