Event Rebroadcast: In Conversation With Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden

After the Fact - A podcast by The Pew Charitable Trusts - Fridays

In celebration of Pew’s 75th anniversary, we hosted a special live event titled “Strengthening Democracy in America,” featuring a conversation between Pew’s president and CEO, Sue Urahn, and Carla Hayden, the current librarian of Congress. They discussed how libraries serve as a “bastion of equal opportunity,” providing access to unbiased information, and why an informed citizenry is essential to a strong democracy.
