Summary
The Mississippi Library Commission has permanently deleted its race relations and gender studies databases from the Magnolia system, citing compliance with state anti-DEI laws.
Executive Director Hulen Bivins confirmed the removal, warning of broader service cuts due to collapsing federal support.
DOGE effectively shut down the Institute of Museum and Library Services, halting grants nationwide.
Mississippi faces a funding crisis after failing to pass a state budget. Bivins warned libraries may close without support, saying, “It’s a tragic story.”

I am shocked. Absolutely shocked. Shocked to learn Mississippi still has libraries.
Why keep them if no one can read?
Cool! Now anyone can claim to be white when applying for schools, jobs.
