Thanks to @SanQuentinNews for the article about an event we had at the SQ Library last month! We gave away 250 kids books and sent out 98 packages to families. We hope to double capacity next time and do this event twice a year. https://t.co/o5nAYyUtjt

Writing thank you letters to the 14 incarcerated library staff at San Quentin. They are the backbone of our work. It's their ideas, input, and experiences running the library that inform our project. Looking forward to our meetings and the collaborations we will do in 2023!
