The Librarians film screening and panel discussion

THE LIBRARIANS, which made its world premiere at Sundance and continued on to SXSW and Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, explores the urgent moment we find ourselves in. As an unprecedented wave of book banning is sparked in Texas, Florida, and beyond, librarians under siege join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy, flanked by concerned community members and young readers. THE LIBRARIANS is a chilling cautionary tale and rallying cry for freedom–told through the personal experiences of librarians under siege and the everyday patriots who join their ranks in defense of the books.

Join us to learn about how these efforts affect library patrons, staff, and libraries across the US, including in Wyoming, where House Bill 0100 could have detrimental effects on public and school libraries. The film screening will be followed by a panel discussion considering the impact of the bill on our community's intellectual freedom and access to information, as well as the potential legal and financial impact on librarians.

In collaboration with Teton County Library Foundation & Friends, Better Wyoming, and Jackson Hole International Film Festival.
