Banned Books Read Out!

Tuesday, October 7, 2025 | 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm

Join us in the Learning Commons to have an interactive discussion about banned and challenged books! The theme this year is "Censorship is so 1984." Door prize, pizza and snacks provided.

Banned Books Week is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. It was launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in schools, bookstores, and libraries. Banned Books Week highlights the value of free and open access to information and brings together the entire book community — librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types — in shared support of the freedom to seek and express ideas.
