A year after the tragedy in Uvalde, TX, the town's library is helping the community recover, providing a safe space for families affected by the shooting as well as a business-as-usual space for kids who now live in a town inundated with media attention. bit.ly/43iu1is
“The library always tries to bring a sense of normalcy in the middle of chaotic times" Libraries have always been a safe place for me so it meant a lot to visit @EPML_uvaldeTX to see how they've served the community in the past year.📚🔖❤️ @amlibraries americanlibrariesmagazine.org/2023/05/22/hop…
