Free for All: The Public Library In-Person
Kennett Library is honored to partner with WHYY and Indie Lens Pop-Up to host a Free for All: The Public Library screening, followed by a panel discussion featuring library staff.
Free for All: The Public Library tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple idea happen. From the pioneering women behind the “Free Library Movement” to today's librarians who serve the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans, meet those who created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all.
Our panelists:
Chris Manna, Executive Director of Kennett Library - Moderator
Filomena Elliott, Director of Adult Literacy Program
Lou Florence, Collection Development
John Hendrix, Children’s Librarian
Gaby McKelligan, Circulation & Romance Book Group
