Library Love – Movers and Shakers 5/15/25

On today’s show we talk with Northfield Director of Library Services Natalie Draper and the library’s Outreach Services Manager Angelica Linder about being named 2025 Movers and Shakers by Library Journal. We also talk about the curation of the library collection, particularly the books, and how or why things are moved in or moved out. Finally we wrap up with a good discussion about free speech and why banning books is a bad idea.
