The GFPL cordially invites the public to watch Free for All: The Public Library starting at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, April 8. This Indi Pop-Up documentary is free to attend in the Cordingley Room. Doors open at 6 pm.

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 service 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.

This will be the first of two Indie Lens Pop-Up films the library will be showing. We also will show Matter of Mind: My Alzheimer’s on May 29 from 6 to 8 pm.
