Judith Krug Fund Education Project

The Judith F. Krug Memorial Fund funds online education efforts focused on intellectual freedom for library and information studies (LIS) students and library professionals. Judith was a fierce proponent of education, and among her many other accomplishments she taught classes and lectured frequently at LIS programs on intellectual freedom. 

The Memorial Fund also supports Banned Books Week project grants. Please visit here to learn more.
