Renovating for the Future! Banned Books Week @ your library®
Banned Books Week 2006 is September 23–30
A title is considered a challenged book when a school or library receives a written complaint about said title along with a request that it be removed from the collection because of its questionnable content or appropriateness.
Popular authors whose books have been challenged include: Maya Angelou, Judy Blume, Stephen King, J.K. Rowling, and John Steinbeck.
