Happy Banned Books Week 2009.  To celebrate Banned Books Week and the freedom to read, the Learning Center has a display of books in our collection that have been challenged or banned across the country.  See what books were most frequently challenged last year!  Find out more about why book are challenged and who does the challenging! Finally, check out this pretty rad Map of Book Censorship.

If you want to learn a little more about Banned Book Week, this week’s Friday is Writing Day with focus on banned and challenged children and young adult books.  Friday October 2 and noon outside the Spoonholder Cafe.  We’ll talk about Banned Book Week and anyone who would like to read a section of a banned or challenged book is welcome to at that time.
