Who bans books in the United States? We like to think that our country is an open society where people can choose for themselves, and their family members, what appropriate reading material is. But that is not always the case. In the month of October, the Lincoln Public Library will have a selection of banned books under wraps. The display will include the books under cover with hints as to what title it is on the wrapper. Take a guess, and then lift off the cover to see if you're right, and also to learn more about the book and why it was banned.
