SOME CHILDREN'S/TEEN'S BOOK REMAIN RESTRICTED
Although most of the books that were initially removed from the Children's/Teen's Section of the HB Library have been quietly returned to their appropriate shelves, some books remain restricted in an adults only section of the library.

All About Children and Censorship
From the National Coalition Against Censorship
Every year, there are dozens of challenges to literary works as varied and acclaimed as The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie, John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, and Toni Morrison’s Beloved.
Whether you’re a parent, a student, a teacher—or none of the above—you can fight back.
