ALA's Banned Book List

Page history last edited by Dan Thayer 11 years, 5 months ago

Banned or Censored

 

Each year, the ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom records hundreds of attempts by individuals and groups to have books removed from libraries shelves and from classrooms. Each of these titles have been attempted to be banned, banned or censored in some way, shape, or form. Take a look for yourself and see what all the fuss is about!
