🔗Journalism and Libraries: “Both Exist to Support Strong, Well-informed Communities”
Increasingly, libraries are playing a greater role in journalism, as journalists and librarians—long entwined by common goals, and facing similar challenges as their industries undergo rapid transformation in the digital age—find ways to collaborate. Some librarians help where news organizations are absent, in news deserts such as Weare, or have been decimated in recent years, such as in Longmont, Colorado, where locals are debating whether to launch a tax-funded “library district” that produces community news alongside operating the local library. Other librarians are teaming up with journalists to promote media literacy and tackle misinformation, develop community journalists, spur civic engagement, and even to take on reporting projects.
