I guess there are some nutjobs out there who patrol their libraries for things they don't agree with, but still. I'm guessing it's a bigger problem in small towns (at least the homophobia thing) but I guess every library probably has its own issues.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5307624409264343548.post-27932478051011980742012-05-03T08:20:56.746-04:002012-05-03T08:20:56.746-04:00Individual books are challenged all over the place...Individual books are challenged all over the place, but I only know of other people's anecdotes regarding certain subjects being "iffy" in their libraries. But it's definitely something that comes up every now and then. Some libraries have it built into their policies that they won't provide certain information (i.e. some super religious school libraries won't hold anti-religion material/material that promotes other religions). <br /><br />Most public libraries say int their policies that they will provide access to everything, but it can be a sticky situation, especially because the people's taxes are paying for the materials. People who are anti-gay marriage certainly don't want their taxes going to pay for pro-gay marriage materials. So it's tough. =\Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13075895128671965485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5307624409264343548.post-69215027159084574332012-05-02T22:04:43.310-04:002012-05-02T22:04:43.310-04:00This is something I'd never really thought of....This is something I'd never really thought of. Do you know how people have dealt with things like that historically? I imagine it must be really rough in certain situations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
