Welcome!
(We have been very busy over the last few months, so posts have been nonexistent. We apologize for that, but we’re back on track and ready to go!)
This month, we’re reading Banned Books for September! If you’re unfamiliar, here’s an explanation about Banned Books from the American Library Association.
In short, per the ALA: “A challenge is an attempt to remove or restrict materials, based upon the objections of a person or group. A banning is the removal of those materials.”
If you’re looking for suggestions on what to read for this month, a list of banned and challenged classics can be found here.
A list of the 100 most frequently challenged and banned books since 1990 (when records were first kept) can be found here.
As always, we will meet in the Truman Room at the library at 6 p.m. on the 3rd Monday of the month (September 16th).
Happy reading!
