In recent weeks, many Chicagoland libraries have received anonymous bomb threats, forcing them to close and be searched while the communities they serve aren't allowed access to the literature and services the libraries provide. On this week's Looped In: Chicago, host Jim Hanke speaks with WBBM reporter Bernie Tafoya about the latest info on these hoaxes, as well as journalist Alison Cuddy, whose recent podcast series about the Chicago Public Library's 150 year history provides some context on other eras where threats have occurred.
