“The guidance EveryLibrary provided to staff and trustees on Information Only Campaigns, messaging, and the process was invaluable to us. All the more so because it was provided pro-bono. Their personal engagement helped allay fears and reassure us along the way, too. Thanks to EveryLibrary you for the great work you do for libraries.”

Jeannie Dilger, Executive Director, Palatine (IL) Public Library District

I am so unbelievably grateful for the help and support I was given by EveryLibrary. They got the word out at such a crucial point in the election, which is why our fight went national and then international.

Laura Sanders, Director, Lafourche Parish (LA) Public Library system

You and your team are doing great work and every librarian should be supporting EveryLibrary! I’ve made my contribution a recurring monthly donation and I wish you all the best. Thanks for the work that you’re doing and I am proud to put my support behind it!

Thanks for providing the vision and the leadership to create this incredibly valuable resource for libraries across the United States. Libraries have a long history of collaboration and cooperation in the development of services for our communities, and it’s time we stand together in the political arena as well. Cheers.

Brenda Crider, Director, Bucyrus Public Library

Statement on Independence of National Archives and Records Administration

February 20, 2025

We are deeply concerned by President Trump’s decision to fire the Archivist of the United States, Dr. Colleen Shogan, and the subsequent appointment of Jim Byron, a political ally, to oversee the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) under the direction of Secretary of State Marco Rubio. These actions, combined with the resignation of senior NARA leadership, pose a serious threat to the integrity, independence, and fundamental mission of the National Archives.

This is not an exception but a model for what is to come under the Trump administration.
