HCPL believes that our freedom to read is every bit as important as our freedom to speak. Book banning is not only an attempt to silence authors and the communities they may represent. It is an attempt to curtail the free exchange of ideas. HCPL and other public libraries are your home for independent reading. #ReadBannedBooks #FReadom

For day two of #bannedbooksweek here is a collage I made of 100 books that have been frequently challenged and banned over time or have notable recent challenges. According to the American Library Association, there were 681 attempts to ban books in 2021. In 2020, that number was around 200. Do you notice any pattens amongst these? Do any of the books featured here surprise you? How many of these have you read? I’ve half almost half. #bannedbooks #ireadbannedbooks #readbannedbooks #fightbookbans #freetoread #intellectualfreedom #americanlibraryassociation #bookstagram #booktok #bookstagrammer #booktoker https://www.instagram.com/p/CisZYOirL6q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

BANNED BOOKS WEEK: an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. Typically held during the last week of September, it highlights the value of free and open access to information. Banned Books Week brings together the entire book community — librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers — in shared support of the freedom to seek and express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular. http://www.ala.org/advocacy/bbooks #art #artists #writers #bannedbooks #bannedbooksweek #freedom #censorship #library #librarians #libraries #journalism #freepress #ebooks #comicbooks #fuckthegovernment #readbannedbooks #wordshavepower

Spreading a little cash locally at a favorite depository!iPhone cameras are pretty blah, and especially SUCK in low light!! You can't see the book I am holding. I was hoping to bring it out in "developing" the pic here in Instagram. Alas, nope. I picked up a copy 'Strangers in Paradise V1' Pocket Book Edition, I needed to replace my Library copy to loan out since I gave the last one away 😊 #TreehornBooks #ReadMoreBooks #readbooks #readbannedbooks #readgoodbooks #SiP #StrangersInParadiseGNs #terrymoore #TerryMooreRocks #terrymooreart (at Treehorn Books)

NPR: "An Arkansas judge has blocked a law targetting librarians over 'harmful' books"

FightIgnorance #FightCensorship #ReadBannedBooks

"The executive director of Central Arkansas Library System, Nate Coulter, said the judge's 49-page decision recognized the law as #censorship, a violation of the Constitution and wrongly maligning #librarians.

"As folks in southwest Arkansas say, this order is stout as horseradish!" he said in an email."

Starting my day by packing up a few Fab Feminist September subscription boxes. The theme this month, in case you didn't already know, is B A N N E D Books! You can learn more about Banned Books week at bannedbooksweek.org : "Banned Books Week, the annual celebration of the freedom to read, will be held the week of September 24th in 2017. For this year’s celebration, the coalition of organizations that sponsors Banned Books Week will emphasize the importance of the First Amendment, which guarantees our inherent right to read.⠀ ⠀ Censorship is happening and it is infringing on the right of readers.⠀ ⠀ According to the American Library Association’s Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF) – which tracks reports of book challenges and bans and compiles an annual Top Ten Challenged Books List – there was an alarming 17% increase in book censorship complaints in 2016. Since most challenges are not reported, the actual number is probably much higher. Even more disturbing, while only 10% of the titles reported to OIF are normally removed from the institutions receiving the challenges, half of the most frequently challenged books were actually banned last year."⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #readbannedbooks #readmorebooks #imwiththebanned #livefreeandread #read #readandresist #theresistance #readallthebooks #womenwhoread #feministart #etsyseller #subscriptionbox #subscriptionaddiction #bibliophile #booklover #read
