Library Juice Academy-EveryLibrary’s 5K Your Way For Libraries Event Supporter

We are grateful for the generous support that Library Juice Academy is giving us as we embark on our journey to host the first-ever 5K Your Way For Libraries!

The library is more than just a place that holds books, and this is more than just another 5K. You get to decide what your 5K looks like and participate anywhere in the world! Join Library Juice Academy, EveryLibrary, and library supporters around the country from September 26th to October 2nd, 2021, as we raise $50,000.

EveryLibrary’s 5K Your Way For Libraries unites all communities, companies, and individuals across the country as we continue the library-saving work we've been doing for the last 9 years. Involvement in the 5K Your Way For Libraries fundraising event provides your employees, customers, and communities the opportunity to help EveryLibrary save libraries in crisis throughout the country.

Library Juice Academy offers a range of online professional development workshops for librarians and other library staff, focusing on practical topics to build new skills. Library Juice Press publishes books on theoretical and practical issues in librarianship from a critical perspective, for an audience of professional librarians and students of library science.

“Library Juice is thrilled to once again be collaborating with EveryLibrary for this event. From local ballot initiatives to broad-level library advocacy, we know the money raised will go directly to causes that support libraries in the ways that matter. We're endlessly proud of their efforts and more importantly, their results.” Lacey Torge, Editor-in-Chief, Litwin Books, Library Juice Press

We are happy to have Library Juice Academy on our team!
