"Without People There Would Be No Library" (Tera Moon and the IMLS)
It's a complicated time in library land, as an executive order from the current US presidential administration compromises the federal funding provided to the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Today, Nicole, Drew, Killian, and Amanda sit down with special guest Tera Moon, director of the Bloomfield Township Public Library, to discuss how this might affect libraries and services at both the local and state level.
