This week Tayla is joined by Emily Drabinski, incoming president of the American Library Association, and Deborah Caldwell-Stone, director of the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom. They get into the controversy of book challenges and censorship, which poses a threat to free expression and vital library services all over the United States. They also discuss cozy mysteries, trash TV, and balancing reading for work and for pleasure. This episode was recorded live at the 2023 Rhode Island Library Association Annual Conference, held May 24-25 at the Providence Public Library.
