Fighting for the Future of Libraries (With Jennie Rose Halperin)
Censorship, AI, and the role of librarians in a country with crumbling public institutions.
In this week's interview, we are fortunate to have Jennie Rose Halprein, the executive director of Library Futures, a non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for a just digital future for libraries and their communities. Having covered libraries extensively in the past, I have had multiple discussions with Jennie, but many topics never made it into my articles.
To provide a fresh perspective, I am sharing one of those private conversations with you today. The topics range from censorship to other significant issues, and I trust you will find this conversation as engaging as I did. Tune in to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.
