The Free Library of Philadelphia is dedicated to providing both online and in-person visitors with open access to its vast resources. With the many dimensions a blog provides, we can further illuminate our programs, speakers, and offerings through enhanced linkage, photographic, and commentary capabilities. We’ve included information and opinions about books and DVDs, foreign language materials, electronic resources…everything that sits on our shelves, virtual and physical, new and not-so-new, classic and currently popular. What about you? Have an opinion about books you’ve read or films you've seen that you want to share? If so, we encourage you to post a comment (see below for instructions). A blog enables us to start important dialogues and keep them going to make sure that you’re getting as much out of your Free Library experience as possible. After all, it’s what we’re here for.

The Free Library Blog is part of the Free Library of Philadelphia. Posts are written by a variety of Library staff members, from people in the Communications and Materials Management departments to your local librarian.

Under each post, to the right, is the link "Send Us Your Feedback." Click on this link, and you will be directed to a brief online form that has a space for your ideas and opinions as well as for your name and email address. Please don’t worry—YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS WILL NOT BE PUBLISHED.

Your comments will be posted directly to the blog. The Free Library of Philadelphia, of course, reserves the right to remove or edit postings for language if they are inappropriate to an online public discussion, or if they do not relate to either the Free Library or this blog’s mission. If you have a reference question, please use our Ask a Librarian services. If you neglect to include your email, your comment will not be published.
