"There once was a time when you could donate a book to the library to give others in your community access to it. There once was a time when libraries owned the works that they provide to the public, rather than finding themselves trapped by unethical technology and predatory licensing fees," said Greg Farough, campaigns manager at the FSF.

DRM ruins efforts at historical preservation. If all of our media is locked up in digital streaming platforms -- which will go under eventually -- how will it be preserved for future generations? Live DRM-free instead: https://u.fsf.org/1aj #EndDRM #DRM

By its very nature, DRM is antithetical to historical preservation. If we want to ensure our media be accessible by future generations, it needs to be freely accessible -- not locked in digital handcuffs. #DayAgainstDRM #Libraries

A #DayAgainstDRM wouldn't be complete without a shoutout to #FreeCulture. If you're an artist, licensing your work under a free license (like CC BY-SA) is one of the best ways to share it with the world. https://dayagainstdrm.org #CreativeCommons #Libraries

When we have a new streaming "service" debuting every day while libraries are forced to "lease" rather than own the books they circulate -- you know we have a problem. Stand up against corporate power and go #DRMfree: https://defectivebydesign.org #Libraries #DayAgainstDRM

Don't be fooled, companies like OverDrive and Follett are opposed to the "right to read." Otherwise, they would let libraries own digital works rather than lease them with predatory fees and unjust DRM. #DayAgainstDRM https://dayagainstdrm.org #RightToRead #Libraries

We've sent our letter letting our local library know we support *them*, not corporate DRM. What about you? #DayAgainstDRM: https://dayagainstdrm.org #Libraries #SupportLibraries #RightToRead

Determined to go a day without DRM on #IDAD? Our Guide to DRM-free Living will help you do just that: https://u.fsf.org/guide24 If you have any more suggestions, we'd love to hear them. #Libraries #DayAgainstDRM #DRMFree #GivingGuide

There's no reason for digital books or **any** other digital media to have the limitations of physical media arbitrarily imposed on them. Digital "lending" is a solved problem: https://u.fsf.org/3eg #DayAgainstDRM #Libraries #ebooks
