Banned Books Week

September 26 - October 2

Books unite us. Sharing stories important to us means sharing a part of ourselves. Books reach across boundaries and build connections between readers. Censorship, on the other hand, divides us and creates barriers.

Teens! Drop in on Tuesday, September 28 at 3 PM to pick up a take-home craft kit to make a mini book pendant.

Check out our Banned Books display in the Teen area beginning Sept. 27!
