in the past, many public libraries have chosen to combine their banned book events–displays, readings, lists, even dramatic productions–with their september project program. it’s a great idea, especially because ala offers suggestions for events each year. from the office for intellectual freedom page:
We invite you to explore what the week means. Reflect on your freedom to read, cherish it, and, by all means, read what you want to read. As the author of Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury, said, “You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.”
nicely said! consider the activities ala suggests.
