Intellectual Freedom is the right to read, view, hear, express and discuss any idea on any subject. The Committee works to uphold the BCLA Statement on Intellectual Freedom in our libraries through:
- publishing educational materials
- organizing conference sessions and workshops
- organizing and participating in public events to raise awareness of intellectual freedom issues
- supporting librarians, trustees and library staff facing individual challenges
Join the discussion! Find out why We read banned books, and other stuff too... on the Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) blog.
