MLA actively advocates and educates in defense of intellectual freedom – the rights of library users to read, seek information, and speak freely as guaranteed by the First Amendment. Intellectual freedom is a core value of the library profession and a basic right in our democratic society. MLA opposes censorship of materials and is a proponent of the accessibility to materials without prejudice to every member of the community. The MLA Intellectual Freedom Task Force invites you to join the MI Right to Read coalition of concerned Michigan residents who are willing to step up and protect the right to read in Michigan.
