Gallantry of the American Library in Paris
The American Library in Paris at No 9 rue de Teheran preserved knowledge during the German occupation. Despite threats to burn books and loot shelves, staff endured cold and hunger, serving French historians and students as a beacon of freedom. Now funded support is needed to update its stock and sustain its mission.
