Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Keep the librarian on staff. The line item looks small and the cut looks painless right up until the day a kid needs to find something true and there is nobody in the building whose job that is, and the parent in the tee watched the district cut that job in May. A room full of books without a librarian is storage. This tee is about the person, not the shelving.

Wear it to the school board budget vote, the PTA, the school library, the state house education hearing, and the family dinner where a relative says the kids have the internet. It is a strong gift for a parent, a school librarian, a teacher, and the friend who spoke at the budget vote.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a school board budget vote. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the staffing entry on our book bans and libraries page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Fabric and fit

Comfort Colors 1717: 6.1 oz 100 percent ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed and soft-washed so it feels broken in from the first wear. Relaxed unisex fit, true to size, S to 4XL in eight colors. Double-needle stitching, no side seams, sewn-in label.

Measurements for every size are on the size and fit guide.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
