Sault Ste. Marie Public Library joins libraries across Canada to highlight Freedom to Read Week, which takes place later this month
Sault Ste. Marie Public Library is challenging the public to read books that have been banned or challenged in celebration of Freedom to Read Week, an annual nationwide event organized by the Book and Periodical Council which takes place during the third week of February.
Elise Schofield, manager of community engagement for Sault Ste. Marie Public Library, says the library is joining other libraries across Canada to highlight Freedom to Read Week in order to celebrate people's intellectual freedom and freedom of expression that are granted under Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
“We really look to support all expressions, ideas and opinions to celebrate that we are able to read whatever we would like.”
