George Eberhart writes: “On June 24, 2018, ALA Council passed a historic resolution that ‘apologizes to African Americans for wrongs committed against them in segregated public libraries’ and commends those ‘who risked their lives to integrate public libraries for their bravery and courage in challenging segregation in public libraries and in forcing public libraries to live up to the rhetoric of their ideals.’ Then-ALA President Jim Neal read the resolution later that day to an audience at the main New Orleans Public Library accompanied by four individuals who participated in sit-ins and protests at libraries in the South during the 1960s.”
