Join the Newton Free Library and GBH for an Indie Lens Pop-Up! This event will feature a screening of the Independent Lens documentary The Librarians, in which librarians across the U.S. examine how book review policies are shaping their communities.
Following the screening will be a panel discussion and Q&A with Malinda Lo, bestselling author and member of Mass Freedom to Read, and Andrea Fiorillo, Co-Chair of the Massachusetts Library Association's Intellectual Freedom/Social Responsibilities Committee. The panel will focus on the state of intellectual freedom and book bans and challenges here in Massachusetts.
