<strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">February 17, 2017</span></strong>. On this day, museums, libraries, archives, cultural institutions, science centers and other trusted public sources of knowledge will share mission-related
 content using the hashtag #DayofFacts. While there are no limits on the factual content that you can share, we hope institutions will share content relevant to this particular moment in American history. By not taking an overt political stand but simply sharing
 mission-related, objective, and relevant facts, we will show the world that our institutions are still trusted sources for truth and knowledge.” The website offers guidelines and resources. Anyone can participate, whether or not they register. In the section
 called Who Should Participate, there’s a disclaimer you should read. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

 and images can be found on the I Love Libraries website. You can copy the small square images from the webpage, but if you want to download larger images, posters, and other materials, you’ll need to register to access the toolkit.
