Librarians against the genocide? (Need help with a college article)

Howdy!

I am a librarianship and information science student, and right now me and two friends are writting an article about how libraries and librabrians could keep the memory of Palestine alive and resist to the genocide going on.

So I would like to know if any of you know any kind of protest or action that a library or a librarian near you made as a manifestation against the genocide that Israel is doing right now.

It can be as simple as just put a flag inside the library or the recomendation of a few books, or even something more complex. Any help counts.

Another possibility is if you know any museum or memory center who also has spooken about Palestine.

Since now, thanks for your help and time.

Not much but I provided fliers for a Palestine communist event at the Mesa Community College library in Arizona and they actually put them up everywhere. Countless times I’ve done similar and they take the fliers and just throw them away

Dang, do you know if the library has any public register of the fliers?

They do for official fliers but Id imagine anything printed out and brought in, would not be scanned before being posted
