Celebrating Banned Books Week
September 27, 2021 - October 3, 2021
An event every day that begins at 12:00 am, repeating until October 3, 2021
In the book shop we will have a Banned Book Display and a game of “Guess the Banned Book.” There will be a jar on the counter with shredded pages from a banned book. Patrons can enter the drawing by trying to guess the name of the banned book. A winner will be drawn on Saturday, October 2. Also in the store on October 2, we will have readings throughout the day from banned books.
Online we will highlight staff members and their favorite banned books as well as post a daily trivia question about banned books.
