The Public — A Film directed by Emilio Estevez On a bitter cold night a Cincinnati librarian is caught between a group of homeless people seeking shelter and a faceoff with local law enforcement and the media. This film is a spot on depiction of what it’s like to work in a public library. And it also manages to reflect the values that drive librarians in their service to the public; open access of information, patron privacy, confidentiality, and reliable sourcing of information to name a few. The Public stars Emilio Estevez, Jena Malone, Christian Slater and Alec Baldwin. The Churchill County Library owns two copies on dvd. Carol Lloyd is the Director of the Churchill County Library. She is happy that a movie was made about a library. Never miss the local news — read more on The Fallon Post home page.
