摘要

We, the undersigned, protest the sanctioning of adult services librarian Lesley Williams by the Evanston Public Library (EPL), IL. While it is technically being explained as resulting from "unprofessional conduct," we recognize that disciplinary action against Williams takes place in context of a broad assault against intellectual freedom. Cynically wrapping itself in advocacy for "balance," this assault targets educators like Williams for presenting diverse perspectives intended to engage the full range of the community served by public institutions such as EPL. Disciplinary action against Williams, then, is part of a general attack on institutions of public education.
