Banned Books Week - 2012
Please join the Libraries@Trocaire in celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Banned Books Week. Banned Books Week serves to shine a spotlight on attempts to censor or remove books from the shelves of Libraries across the country.
The Libraries@Trocaire uphold the American Library Association's Freedom to Read statement and will continue to ensure that our Trocaire community has an open access to information.
As part of our activities for the week, we will be holding a Battle of the Banneds. We are asking all faculty, staff and students to let us know what their favorite classic and current "banneds" are and why. One lucky winner will be drawn at random to receive a $25 iTunes gift card.
We will also have mini give-aways, but you have to stop by and see us for those. We've decked out the Libraries and have banned books on display that can be checked out for 28 days with your Trocaire College ID.
More information on Banned Books Week can be found here and here.
