It’s Freedom to Read Week

In 2024, Freedom to Read Week began Feb. 18 and ends on Feb. 24. Freedom to Read Week is one of the most important weeks of the year for libraries across Canada. This annual national event aims to encourage Canadians “to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom,” according to the official website. This year, one of the predominant themes of Freedom to Read Week is how to handle the near constant influx of disinformation and information manipulation that we come across in our daily lives. htmlhttp://www.niagarathisweek.com/opinion/columnists/its-freedom-to-read-week/article_46dc643e-687d-5b88-b111-bc80ecd65adb.html
