The Librarians is now available to watch for free online! This documentary won a Primetime Emmy Award for Exceptional Merit in Documentary Filmmaking.

About the film: "When lawmakers seek to review a list of books, librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S., librarians face the impact of uniting against library collection standards that include restrictions on race-related and LGBTQIA+ content. Drawing on historical context, The Librarians explores the broader implications for education and public life."

The Librarians follows librarians and citizens responding to restrictions on library content across the United States.
