State of America's Libraries - A Snapshot of 2025

End this year’s National Library Week by checking out the “State of America’s Libraries: A Snapshot of 2025” report created by the American Library Association.

ALA’s Office for Intellectual Freedom tracked 4,235 unique titles challenged in 2025, the second highest ever documented by ALA.
