CHARLEMONT — When one student at The Academy at Charlemont learned about the Liberation Library — an organization that gives books to incarcerated youths — she was eager to get involved.
“I love reading. I think it’s something that everyone should have and enjoy,” said Katje Gibb-Buursma, 11. “It is something to entertain you and keep your mind off of hard things.”
