Darien Library presents: Monday Night at the Movies!
This week we are showing "Free For All: The Public Library."
“‘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.” – PBS
