Five years ago today, Judith Krug passed away. To honor her memory, we are posting a series of remembrances on the Freedom to Read Foundation blog throughout the day. If you would like to add a memory, please feel free to email ftrf@ala.org or post a note in the comments.
For our final post today, here are some memorials of Judith from 2009 -
