We experienced our first challenge last week. I was able to handle it pretty efficiently but I’m bracing for more.

 

I’m wondering how many TN public libraries have faced a challenge so far… Some have obviously been very public but I’m betting there are others that have not had the publicity that Maury County had. It’s great they had such a vocal advocate but the damage had already reached too far there prior to this viral advocacy.

Thanks Bryan. Received the second email complaint about LGBTQ books in our collection in two weeks this morning and I needed the reminder that our communities will support us...
