Access to information is a fundamental right that empowers individuals and strengthens communities. Every year, Freedom of Information Day is observed on or around March 16, the birthday of James Madison, one of the strongest advocates for open government and the free exchange of ideas.
This day serves as a reminder of the importance of public access to information, transparency in government, and the role libraries play in making knowledge accessible to all. At PCPL, we support your right to know by offering access to reliable information, government resources, and historical records—ensuring that knowledge remains free and open to everyone.
Join us in celebrating the power of information! Stop by the library to explore our resources, learn about your rights, and discover how libraries champion access to knowledge for all.
