Whoever would
do good in the world, ought not to deal in censure.
We ought not to destroy, but rather construct.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In celebration of Freedom to Read Week, RDC Library has compiled collections of challenged books available in the Library Catalogue.
- Children's LiteratureExplore children's books that have been frequently challenged in schools and public libraries for indecent or questionable content.
- Young Adult FictionFictional books written for teenagers and older children are commonly challenged for dealing with coming of age issues like drugs, sex, identity and violence.
- Adult FictionWhile many of these titles are considered modern classics, they have caused controversy, complaints and, in some cases, public bans and book burning.
- Non-FictionNumerous non-fiction titles have come under fire for their portrayals and treatment of issues, events and ideas.
