About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Join AZPM for a screening of Free For All: The Public Library, a documentary from Independent Lens. The film 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 service the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans. Discover how these individuals created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all.

Admission is free. All are welcome!
Come celebrate the enduring value of public libraries in our communities.

This event will be in Room 350 of the Modern Languages Building on the campus of the University of Arizona.
