What reminds you of Autumn? Pumpkins, apple-picking, that first brisk chill in the air? How about
Banned Books Week? BBW takes place every year during the last week of September and recognizes the efforts of booksellers, teachers, and librarians who ensure that we, as citizens, have open access to information. It's a time to reflect on the vital importance of our First Amendment rights. Take a peek at
what Ken Davis has to say about BBW, get
more info from the American Library Association, and check out this list of
frequently challenged titles, including
To Kill A Mockingbird,
