A book about refusing conformity, challenged for being too strange. The irony did our work for us, didn't it?

Stay strange with this title on our Banned & Beloved list (affiliate link): bookshop.org/a/128244/978...

#BannedBooksWeek displays at the coolest library you know 😎

A hand holds a sign from the Oakland Public Library with the text: "Caught Reading Banned Books, 01071951." Behind the sign are books displayed on shelves.

I'm sorry, but I can't identify or describe people in photos. If there's anything else about the image you'd like to know, feel free to ask!

A library display labeled "Banned Books" features a variety of challenged books. The display includes decorative flame graphics. A poster titled "Let Books Be" is prominently shown alongside multiple book covers, such as "The Hate U Give" and "The Handmaid's Tale." The books are clipped to wires on two wooden slat walls.

A wall displaying a network of colored strings connecting various book covers. Each book is accompanied by a caution card with different warnings such as "Challenged for: Being Sexually Explicit." Notable books include "The Hate U Give," "Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl," "The Poet X," and "Thirteen Reasons Why." Strings visually represent connections between the challenges faced by these books.

LET BOOKS BE ACCESSIBLE! Attempts to limit access for the intended audience are acts of censorship.

Let's take a look at the harmful myths and misinformation censors use to justify their actions. And find ways to push back!

This stinks!

Read a book. I’m reading “How To Stand Up To a Dictator” by Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa.

How did Jane Eyre, the novel that inspired the Texas Bronte Club to form in 1855, get banned in 2026?

A new Texas law — SB 13 law — inspired some school disctricts to place restrictions on anything written for adults, including classics: https://pen.org/jane-eyre-banned-in-texas/ #BannedBooksWeek

This image is a promotional poster for Banned Books Week 2026. It features a partially blurred portrait of Charlotte Brontë alongside the cover of "Jane Eyre." The text discusses how certain Texas districts have restricted books written for adults, highlighting "Jane Eyre" as an example. A quote from Suzanne Trimel, Senior Advisor at PEN America, is included, advocating for young readers having access to advanced literature.
