It's Banned Books Week. This awareness week was launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in libraries, bookstores, and schools.

Every year, the American Library Association (ALA) compiles a list of the books most frequently targeted by censors based on reports from the field and media coverage. Learn more about these books, banned book data and more at: https://www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/top10

During Banned Books Week Oct 4 - 10 we will review the Top 11 Most Challenged Books of 2025. Why 11? Because in some instances there was a tie in the number of challenges.

A handful of people should not be allowed to dictate what the rest of us can read! Organized groups have used fear and disinformation to silence stories and remove books from our libraries, schools, and bookstores. Why can’t they just let books be?

Books are for everyone. Books should be read. Books should be uncensored. Let Books Be. Protect the Freedom to Read.
