“Research” — Library Editorial Cartoon

“When we don’t know something, these days we’re told to “google it.” That’s not bad advice for most simple things. But if you have something more complex, the research can start to get very confusing and even a bit surreal. Fortunately, your local reference librarian is more than happy to help you out. They really love research.”

— Kevin Moore, EveryLibrary’s 2017 Artist in Residence

EveryLibrary is proud to welcome Kevin Moore as our 2017 Artist in Residence. As a noted editorial cartoonist and a working librarian, Mr. Moore will bring a unique and timely perspective to the political climate for libraries through new creative work. This Residency begins September 4th, 2017 and will run through November 7th, the traditional “Labor Day to Election Day” period when political and issue campaigns are in the minds of voters across the country. Mr. Moore will produce a series of weekly editorial cartoons focused on library-related issues and themes which will be released by EveryLibrary for use copyright free by libraries across social media and outreach channels. His Residency will be capped-off by an interactive collaboration across EveryLibrary’s extensive network of library activists and advocates.
