‘Independent Lens’ presents ‘Free for All: The Public Library’

Tuesday, April 29 at 9 p.m. 

“Free For All: The Public Library” tells the story of how a simple idea shaped a nation and the quiet revolutionaries who made it happen. From pioneering women behind the “Free Library Movement” to today’s librarians who service the public despite working in a contentious age of closures. Free for All shows how libraries have always been a sanctuary for generations of Americans.
