What are Banned Books, exactly? And what’s Challenged vs Banned mean? The Silent Book Club explains it so well. Here’s the SBC’s explanation. Learn more so you can take an educated stand against censorship. Libraries and librarians take action because of you. You are important and you matter. Everyone deserves to see representations of themselves in the books they read. Stand with the banned.
