  • Ideas for Celebrating Banned Books Week
    Ideas for Celebrating Banned Books Week Banned Books Week is an annual national event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. (The 2015 celebration will be held from September 27 – October 3, 2015.) Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the dangers of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted banning of books throughout the United States. The ideas below can be used to celebrate Banned Books Week, or integrated throughout the school year to ensure student understanding of the freedom to read. (For more information about Banned Books Week, go to http://www.bannedbooksweek.org/) For lesson plans on teaching about banned books, related themes, and numerous additional topics, visit the Carolina K-12’s (www.carolinak12.org) Database of K-12 Resources at: k12database.unc.edu Creation of this curriculum was funded by the Freedom to Read Foundation’s Judith F. Krug Memorial Fund. For more information about the Freedom to Read Foundation, go to http://www.ftrf.org/.

This freedom, not only to choose what we read, but also to select from a full array of possibilities, is firmly rooted in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Although we enjoy an increasing quantity and availability of information and reading material, we must remain vigilant to ensure that access to this material is preserved. Would-be censors who continue to threaten the freedom to read come from all quarters and all political persuasions. Even if well intentioned, censors try to limit the freedom of others to choose what they read, see, or hear. Sex, profanity, and racism remain the when the person is a lone protester, the primary categories of objections, and censorship attempt is real.

  • Celebrating 100 Years of Banned Books Tarleton State University Spent 2017 Celebrating the 100 Years As Founding Member of the Texas A&M University System
    Library Chronicles Tarleton Libraries | www.tarleton.edu/library Issue 8, 2017-2018 Celebrating 100 Years of Banned Books Tarleton State University spent 2017 celebrating the 100 years as founding member of The Texas A&M University System. When planning started for our annual Banned Books Week (September 24- October 1), the Centennial celebrations across campus inspired library staff to dig deeper into the history of banned and challenged books. Library members identified a banned or challenged title to represent each year between 1917 and 2017. These book titles were made into a graphic and printed on t-shirts to give away during Banned Books Week. The library didn’t want to stop with just t-shirts though. We also wanted to encourage others to share their favorite banned books and to emphasize the 2017 national theme of“ Our Right to Read.” This spawned our Banned Books Read-Out where students, staff, faculty, and community members from both Stephenville and Fort Worth campuses emphasized this uniquely American perspective by reading aloud selections from previously challenged or banned books. The response we received was inspiring. Forty-two people signed-up to read. Readers shared the reasons their selected books were banned or challenged, what the books meant to them, and read short passages, which resulted in three and a half hours of total Read-Out time. Throughout the event, anyone was welcome to pick up a snack and free t-shirt while learning about books that were banned or challenged. Our recorded readings were submitted to the American Library Association’s “Stand for the Banned and Virtual Read-Out” YouTube page.

  • 21St Century Banned Or Challenged YA Books
    21st Century Banned or Challenged YA Books Banned Books and Banned Books Week Banned Books Week (22 - 28 September 2019) was launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in schools, bookshops and libraries across the USA. Since then, according to the American Library Association, more than 11,000 books have been challenged, and the number continues to grow. Banned Books Week UK mirrors the United States initiative and aims to highlight the importance of ensuring the freedom to read, write and publish. Libraries, book shops, schools and reading groups are encouraged to hold events celebrating the freedom to read and to challenge voices and ideas being silenced. This is a revised listing of 20 young adult titles, all but one being fiction. What they have in common - apart from having been banned or challenged for a variety of reasons like sex, sexuality, drugs, or bad language - is that all the titles were first published since the turn of the millennium. The list was compiled by freedom of expression campaign group Index on Censorship and Islington Council’s Library and Heritage Services, who are part of the Banned Books Week UK coalition. As well as this book list, you can find out more in the banned books school’s toolkit. For more information visit www.bannedbooksweek.org.uk Or to see a comprehensive list of banned and challenged books visit www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks Twitter: @BannedWeekUK Gossip Girl Cecily von Ziegesar 2000 The Gossip Girl series has faced many challenges, often about whether the events in the story are appropriate for a teenage audience.

  • Professional Memo
    City of Kerrville 701 Main Street Kerrville, Texas 78028 (830) 257-8000 www.kerrvilletx.gov PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Stuart Cunyus, Public Information Officer (830) 258-1116 [email protected] Censorship is a dead end – Find your freedom to read during Banned Books Week! Kerrville, Texas (Sept. 24, 2020) – Throughout the country, children are starting a new school year, teachers are sending out their lists of required readings, and parents are beginning to gather books. In some cases, classics like "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," "The Catcher in the Rye," and "To Kill a Mocking Bird" may not be included in curriculum or available in the school library due to challenges made by parents or administrators. Since 1990, the American Library Association's (ALA) Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF) has recorded more than 10,000 book challenges. A challenge is a formal, written complaint requesting a book be removed from library shelves or school curriculum. A banning is the removal of those materials. In 2018, the five types of book censorship were: vandalizing pages, hiding resources, requiring parental permission to access, removing materials, and book burning. It is thanks to the commitment of librarians, teachers, parents, and students that most challenges and bans are unsuccessful and reading materials like "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," the Hunger Games series, "Slaughterhouse Five," and the Harry Potter series remain available. The most challenged and/or restricted reading materials have been books for children. Challenges are not simply an expression of a point of view; on the contrary, they are an attempt to remove materials from public use, thereby restricting the access of others.
