In 2024, former Utah Library Association President Rebekah Cummings became the first librarian to run for Lt. Governor on a major party ticket in the United States. In addition to being a historic moment at the intersection of librarianship, advocacy, and public service, the selection of Rebekah as a Lt. Governor candidate highlights how the national book challenge battle has thrust librarians from the fringes of politics into the mainstream. In this presentation, Rebekah will share her inspirational seven-month journey on the campaign trail, the reasons that she now believes librarians are uniquely well-suited for public office, lessons learned, and a call to action to all librarians looking to engage in public service or run for public office.
