DID YOU KNOW?

📕Book bans and challenges reached an all-time high in 2023 and continue to happen at an alarming rate.
📙A recent report from the American Library Association shows that the majority of book censorship attempts are now originating from organized movements.
📗Pressure groups and government entities consisting of elected officials, board members, and administrators initiated 72% of demands to censor books in school and public libraries.

STAND WITH NYPL TO PROTECT THE FREEDOM TO READ!

📘Since 1982, libraries across the United States have observed Banned Books Week, a time to highlight titles that have been targeted for removal from schools and libraries.
📗The New York Public Library observes Banned Books Week every year, taking the opportunity to elevate and amplify the stories, voices, and titles that censorship attempts to repress.

We will be preparing for Banned Books Week with a special storytime on Saturday, October 3rd with Assemblymember Tony Simone. Families are encouraged to come learn about this week of awareness and have the opportunity to meet their local representative. Starting at 11AM in the Early Literacy Area. We hope to see you there!
