"When my library opened back up, I noticed something odd; people weren’t pushing in their chairs anymore.
It may seem like nothing, but to me it marked the beginning of rampant rudeness and entitlement."

Regular reminder to go get a public library card. As book bans become more and more common, supporting libraries is going to be essential.

For most places I've lived, all you need to get a library card is a photo ID and a piece of mail that shows you live in the city. It's free!

It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like
-check them out regularly at the library
-request the library order them if they don’t have them
-buy them
-start or support banned book clubs
-organize a banned book kids story time
A real shame

Disheartening that Cox STILL signed the bill after a turn out like this. Listen to the people!!
More than a thousand union members and supporters packed the Utah State Capitol rotunda Friday afternoon to protest the anti-union HB267 and urge Gov. Spencer Cox to veto it.
