Hannah Weinberg , American Libraries; Five Months into the Trump Presidency: Charting the latest offensives against libraries and how advocates are pushing back
"Since our last report, libraries have continued to experience significant upheaval from President Trump’s actions. In May, the Trump administration fired Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden and Register of Copyrights Shira Perlmutter. We also saw legal cases challenging the administration’s defunding of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) continue to make their way through the courts in May and June. Meanwhile, library advocates contacted their legislators to fight for federal library funding in fiscal year (FY) 2026.
Here are several updates on the attacks against libraries across the US and the ways in which library supporters are pushing back."
