The integration of Southern public libraries followed demonstrations and protests that used techniques seen in other elements of the larger civil rights movement.[32] This included sit-ins, beatings, and white resistance.[32] For example, in 1963 in the city of Anniston, Alabama, two black ministers were brutally beaten for attempting to integrate the public library.[32] Though there was resistance and violence, the integration of libraries was generally quicker than the integration of other public institutions.
