BANNED BOOKS WEEK
The American Library Association reports that all kinds of people and groups, for all sorts of reasons, continue to attempt to suppress anything that conflicts with their own beliefs. Banned Books Week is September 25 through October 2. Bailey Library's Reference Room is now displaying some of the challenged books from last year. Stop by the Reference Desk on Thursday 9/30/10 from 10am-2pm and 6-8pm and on Friday 10/1/10 from 10am-2pm to play our banned books game and to enter a drawing for SGA bookstore gift certificates.
