“Banned Books Week” display. Moffat Library, Campbell Hall location, September 3, 2013. Moffat Library of Washingtonville
From September 18th to 24th, 2022, libraries across the United States are commemorating Banned Books Week. Since 1982, this awareness campaign celebrates the freedom to read, while drawing attention to banned or challenged books as well as those persecuted for reading or writing them. Over the years, our library has put together many creative displays to recognize Banned Books Week, even when we were temporarily removed to our Campbell Hall location! To view these and other book displays our staff has put together in the past, head over to our Flickr album here.
To learn more about Banned Books Week, including the top challenged books of 2021, you can visit the official Banned Books Week website here.
