BBW23: Read a Banned Book

Posted on by

Celebrate Banned Books Week by reading a book “they” don’t want you to read! You can find the books from last year’s Top Most Challenged Books List (https://www.ala.org/advocacy/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/top10) in the Teaching Materials Center (TMC) and the Library’s Main collection. The top most challenged book, Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe is available in the Graphic Novels section of the TMC. Stop by to take a look, and use the Collection Discovery (https://tiny.cc/BannedBooksML) feature to find even more banned and challenged titles.

If you have ONESearch opened, you can also get there by clicking on your name in the upper right corner.

After you click your name, you can click on “my requests” to view both ILL and pick-up requests, as well as the status. When a pick-up request is pending, you will see that status in the account.
