Libraries Are For Everyone: Malayalam

This is one of those ideas that I really can’t explain how I came up with it. It just sort of happened. About a month prior to having this idea, I had a realization: use <strong><em>all</em></strong> of the front entryway windows at our main library building for programming flyers. Prior to this idea, all events…
