The Last Word
(Canscene)-The Edmonton Public library celebrated Freedom to Read in February. This is an annual event across Canada that encourages all of us to embrace intellectual freedom. To give everyone the opportunity to read what they want, to be informed about all points of view so that we can make an informed choice. One quote… that sums up the spirit of Freedom to Read is:
“A truly great library contains something in it to offend everyone.”
