About this event
During National Library Week, the League of Women Voters recognizes the valuable role that libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities.
On Right to Read Day, April 7, advocates and library lovers to take action to protect, defend, and celebrate the right to read.
The League of Women Voters of Colorado advocated for the passage of Senate Bill 216 in 2024. It sets standards and written policies for decisions regarding library resources. It prohibits discrimination based on age, background, political or religious views, origin, disability, race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender, expression, marital status, national origin, or ancestry in the selection, retention, display, use, or reconsideration of library resources and public meeting spaces. It protects a citizen's right to know and shields library personnel from retaliation.
