Banned Books Week


The books on Lakeview's Banned Books Week display have been flying off the shelves. Interesting, non?

There are some great sites out there with Banned Books week information.
Did you know that one of the reasons "My Friend Flicka" was challenged (yes folks, it's true) was because the author (correctly) calls a female dog a "bitch"? Pretty inflamatory stuff.
The most fun part of the book display is all the patrons who come up to the Ref Desk waving books like Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" and asking why.
