Celebrate Banned Books Week
|
Subversive. Objectionable. Offensive.
Inappropriate. These are just a few of
the terms used to describe many of the
books that are challenged by society
every year.
Once again, to participate in national
Banned Books Week (Sept 26 - Oct 3,
2009), we have invited our staff to
highlight some of their favorite banned
books in our library collections!
The freedom to make your own decisions
about what you want to read, and to have
access to these items, are rights that
libraries fully support. The University
of Michigan's library collection
reflects these
principles in its diversity - come get
to know both our staff and our
collections a little better through
these photos.

freedom, censorship, and to view
