Learn the Facts about Project 2025 and Libraries
The Heritage Foundation's "Project 2025" is a threat to the future of libraries and education. As we approach the November 2024 Election, it is important to talk about the facts of what Project 2025 proposes for America's libraries and schools.
Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation presents a troubling vision for libraries and schools. It includes alarming allegations against librarians, publishers, and educators, and advocates for criminal charges and incarceration. The rhetoric is highly politicized, divisive, and contributes to further polarization among Americans who value the First Amendment and the freedom to read.

Libraries serve as neutral and inclusive spaces, vital for providing access to diverse information. Yet, Project 2025 threatens this by advocating for the closure of the Institute of Museums and Library Services (IMLS) and dismantling key educational structures like the Department of Education and Title I support for schools.
The proposed changes would reshape American education and undermine academic freedom, with severe consequences for libraries, schools, and higher education.
