Standing Up for Stories: Championing Every Student's Right to Read
OSLA Council About This Session
Our own OSLA Past-President, Wendy Burch Jones joins fellow members of the Canadian Centre for Free Expression’s Working Group on Schools and Intellectual Freedom to discuss the pressing issues of today. Why are book challenges on the rise in our school libraries? What is our role in defending intellectual freedom? What does the “freedom to read” look like in our Ontario schools? And how do we deal with book challenges in our own school communities? Join us as we tackle these big issues and discuss the pivotal role of school library professionals as they champion our students’ right to read.
