Fighting for the Future of Libraries (With Jennie Rose Halperin)

Censorship, AI, and the role of librarians in a country with crumbling public institutions.

Fighting for the Future of Libraries (With Jennie Rose Halperin)

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.
