Idaho library supporters and friends! Our very own Huda Shaltry, @Idaho_Libraries Legislative Co-Chair, is a 2024 @LibraryJournal Mover & Shaker. She is a tireless & powerful advocate for the freedom to read. I'm honored to know her.
Congratulations, Huda! libraryjournal.com/story/hud…

We ❤️ folks wanting advice on their library rallies! Some ideas to consider:
- Loop the library director in on your plans.
- Hand out voter registration forms. Getting people to vote will be key to winning!
- Donate to people/ orgs that support libraries in Idaho.
Other ideas?

“What gets lost in conversations about book banning is that it’s really about eliminating the institution of the library, period. It’s not about the books. Well, it is… but the books are the way in to gut one of the last public institutions that serves everyone.” #idpol

For those picking C, if a parent finds books about hunting or any other depiction of killing animals for sport inappropriate for their 12 year old, is it still ok with you to try to make a law to prevent any person under 18 from accessing that information? #idpol
Let’s say you’ve got a 12 year old kid and one day they come home with a book you think is inappropriate for them. Would you:
a) have a chat with your kid
b) work with the library to place limits on your child’s account
c) try to pass a law so no one under 18 can read it #idpol

“We are hearing from Idahoans across the state that they are deeply disappointed in our legislators and their votes in favor of government sponsored censorship,” ILA President Lance McGrath said Thursday. @Idaho_Libraries @lancemcgrath #idpol
Analysis: @GovernorLittle has until Wednesday morning to act on the latest library bill. The guessing and waiting game begins. #idleg #idedu idahoednews.org/top-news/ana…
