FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES: "TEN WAYS TO CELEBRATE BANNED BOOKS WEEK"

This article from the New York Times offers something for everyone: a list of the most frequently challenged books in schools (To Kill a Mockingbird makes the list); a link to a list of the top 100 banned or challenged books; ideas for creating book clubs and reading groups focused on the theme of banned books; an account of how the Brooklyn Public Library handles challenges to reading materials; and links to books and websites banned in other countries. For example, we would expect to see Amnesty International banned in China. But according to the Times, sites such as the Learning Channel and PBS are also banned. The end of the article contains an interesting list of related articles from the Times Learning Network.
