Maximizing Impact with Transformative Grants
The Transformation Grant’s unorthodox approach to engaging with grant applicants on the front end has been a wonderful experience for us. The architect and Tocker staff were generous in sharing their expertise and wisdom in ways that gave us the confidence to proceed with what is, for us, a massive undertaking.
Board Chair | Commerce Public LibraryUnfettered access to information and the exchange of ideas are essential to the preservation of a free and democratic society.
We support intellectual freedom
We oppose censorship and any effort to coerce belief, suppress opinion, or punish those whose expression does not conform to what is deemed to be orthodox in history, politics, or belief.
We are committed to protecting the constitutional rights of all individuals, of all ages, to use the resources and services of libraries.
We champion and defend the freedom to speak, the freedom to publish, and the freedom to read, as promised by the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.
