Celebrate Your Freedom to Read!

It's National Banned Books week. Stop by the library to see a display of the most commonly banned or challenged books. Why do people want to ban books? Come by during nutrition or lunch to discuss this. Be sure to read about the North Carolina School board that THIS WEEK had been considering a ban on Ralph Ellison's classic book The Invisible Man.
