Harris County Public Library

#TheBookWasBetter

Have a family read-in. Pop some popcorn put some pillows and cushions on the floor and read together. It’s a great way to while away a hot summer afternoon. #readtogether

HCPL believes that our freedom to read is every bit as important as our freedom to speak. Book banning is not only an attempt to silence authors and the communities they may represent. It is an attempt to curtail the free exchange of ideas. HCPL and other public libraries are your home for independent reading. #ReadBannedBooks #FReadom

Public libraries are on the front lines in the fight against mis/disinformation. 

 #publiclibraries 

Your right to read as you choose is as important as your right to speak as you choose. #ReadBannedBooks

I sleep better at night knowing public libraries exist.

You had me at “Oh! I love that book!”

We’re not saying it’s okay...but...you know...good books happen. {cough cough].
