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.
