[Libs-Or] Calling Libraries: Bring TED Democracy LIVE to Your Area

[HANNING Darci * SLO]

Hello library community!

For those that are looking for ways to celebrate the 250th anniversary of signing of the Declaration of Independence, this might be of interest:

TED Democracy LIVE<https://www.visitphilly.com/features/ted-democracy-live/>

We are looking for 50-plus libraries across the country to host satellite events that will livestream TED Democracy Philadelphia: Founding Futures and bring these crucial conversations to every state and territory in the U.S. Libraries play a vital role in supporting and strengthening democracy by promoting access to information, fostering critical thinking, encouraging civic engagement and protecting intellectual freedom.

Visit Philadelphia is collaborating with the American Library Association (ALA) to find libraries in every state to host TED Democracy LIVE. These livestream events will increase access to groundbreaking TED Talks to amplify community involvement, foster local engagement and inspire conversation around democracy throughout the country.

Learn more: https://www.visitphilly.com/features/ted-democracy-live/. TED Democracy Live is supported by The PEW Charitable Trusts.

Cheers,
