Should libraries be safe spaces?

09:58

We discuss the demonstrations that took place inside several Boston libraries last month opposing the city's masking policies. Should libraries be considered a public space where anyone can come demonstrate for a cause? Or are they more a place of peace and privacy, dedicated to learning and reflection? We speak with Anita Cellucci, a librarian at Westborough High School and the K-12 Library Department head. She's also a lecturer for Plymouth State University in New Hampshire, where she teaches an online course for children’s and young adult literature.

This segment aired on March 3, 2022.
