Free For All: The Public Library

This film tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple idea happen.  From the pioneering women behind the "Free Library Movement" to today's librarians who service the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans, meet those who created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all.
