from 16:1 - Education, Teaching, & Learning · host Moonbeam Multimedia
Public libraries are an important part of our social infrastructure. This week, Chelsea and Katie share their love of public libraries and everything they do for communities. Your hosts discuss the sorts of activities they loved being able to participate in as children, including tracking dog poop all the way through the bookmobile and visits from pirates and Johnny Appleseed at story time. Chelsea (as usual) delves into history, and Katie explains just a few of the ways that libraries serve their communities.Wikipedia - Anti-Literacy laws in the USNew America - Public Libraries and the PandemicALA - Before 1876 HistoryHistory - 8 Legendary Ancient LibrariesPBS - "Ex Libris"99 Percent Invisible - "Palaces for the People."Wikipedia - Public LibraryWikipedia - Circulating LibraryThe Book Loft - "Meet You in Hell: Andrew Carnegie, Henry Clay Frick, and the Bitter Partnership That Changed America"Save Howard University Classics
