Next week (April 6-12) is National Library Week, so plan to support one of your local, municipal, or university libraries!

Because the Institute of Museums and Library Services is currently being dismantled by the so-called DOGE team, it is vital to support libraries and librarians across the nation.

In Chicago, where I live, the Newberry Library is hosting a series of events for National Library Week.

The Newberry Library currently has an exhibition on Native Pop! in their gallery space. The Newberry Library also has public programs available to celebrate National Library Week.

See the Newberry Library website for more information on its programming for National Library Week.

The American Library Association website has information on celebrations of National Library Week across the nation.

To take action in support of the Institute of Museum and Library Services and libraries, consult the American Library Association advocacy page.
