Back in 2013, a group of librarians and archivists came together in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for self-determination. Since then, Librarians & Archivists with Palestine members have been to Palestine twice, made zines and presentations, coordinated discussions around the world of works of Palestinian literature, launched a campaign to get books into Palestinian libraries, developed resources for archival research, and more. Join us to learn more about LAP’s work and how to get involved; browse posters, photographs, and other materials from the box set documenting our 2013 delegation, as well as items from Interference’s own collection; and come together to discuss the urgency of international solidarity as information workers.
