Our reference collection contains more than 2100 books and other media chronicling the rise of the drug culture and current drug policy issues. Thousands of documents and hundreds of videotapes complete the collection donated by Otto and Connie Moulton to the Foundation in 2002. Our librarian also maintains an up-to-the-minute electronic library of articles about drug policy and current scientific, medical and demographic research.

Our Library Founders: Otto and Connie Moulton, anti-drug community activists from Danvers, Massachusetts, began collecting materials about the drug culture when one of Mr. Moulton’s former Little League players died from an overdose. They also founded a newsletter titled the "Committees of Correspondence" and coordinated letter writing campaigns to alert elected leaders to drug legalization issues. Mr. Moulton toured for five years as a member of former first lady Nancy Reagan’s speakers’ bureau in her campaign against drug abuse and was instrumental in the passage of the anti-drug paraphernalia law. Their generosity in sharing their materials enables Drug Free America Foundation to be the international resource for drug prevention research, and their commitment to keeping our children’s future free from drugs continues to inspire our work. |
