FOR OUR LIBRARIES. ALWAYS.

In these times, with federal funding gutted and censorship on the rise, libraries need your help! At the American Library Association, we are here to protect libraries — today and for generations to come.

Libraries and library workers have shown up for our communities time and time again, and now
it’s time for us to show up for them. Today, they’re facing unprecedented challenges from every direction: the loss of federal funding; record levels of attempted book bans; threats of violence and harassment simply for doing their jobs.

We’re so glad you’re here. Join us as a
Supporter of the American Library Association — because there’s never been a more important time to stand up for libraries.
