The Secret Life of Librarians - Diana Haneski

The Secret Life of Librarians explores the unexpected stories of librarians like Diana - civic heroes who improve lives and bring communities together.
In 2018, librarian Diana Haneski protected 50 students and five faculty within a barricaded equipment room during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Since that day, Haneski has transformed the library into a sanctuary for students’ mental health: “I want students to feel that it’s a refuge, that it’s a safe haven for them,” she says.
