  • Banned Books Week 2024

    “Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.” —Article 3, Library Bill of Rights

    Did you know there are hundreds of attempts to remove books from libraries and classrooms every year? Last year, 4,240 unique book titles were targeted for censorship, 65% more than in 2022. That’s the most the American Library Association has ever documented in more than 20 years. Most of the challenged books were written by or about members of the LGBTQIA+ community and people of color. Please join us in celebrating this year’s Banned Books Week (September 22-28) and our freedom to read. You can learn more with our Banned Books library guide. Here are some of the titles on the American Library Association’s lists of Frequently Challenged Books that you’ll find in our collection:

    • The Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank
    • The Autobiography of Malcolm X
    • Persepolis, by Marjane Satrapi
