More about this "Let Freedom READ" initiative:

This event is following interest from our October 10 "Let Freedom Read" meeting which argues that now more than ever, we need to encourage literacy, inclusivity, and freedom of choice. These events are built upon the importance of defending books from censorship, standing up for libraries, and taking action in support of literacy and education.

Let Freedom READ is a national effort. More information can be found here: bit.ly/LetFreedomReadDay
