Come by the library and check out our display for Banned Books Week! Take a look at the books banned or challenged in libraries and schools over the past two years; some of them may surprise you! Look at the flames throughout the display to learn why the books were banned or challenged. Feel free to check out and read a book to see if you agree or disagree with the ban.
For a brief history on Banned Books Week, take a look at this article from the American Library Association Archives website: http://archives.library.illinois.edu/ala/banned-books-week/ .
