#OTD, we recognize #LetFreedomReadDay, a reminder that access to books and ideas is essential to a free society.

Everyone should have the freedom to read, learn and explore ideas without censorship.

As we near the end of Banned Books Weeks, we wondered who is challenging books?

The American Library Association put together a graph showing censorship by the numbers.

What do you think? πŸ€” πŸ“š

#BannedBooksWeek #LetBooksBe #LetFreedomReadDay #Booksky

Censorship by the numbers. Who challenges books. Nearly 92% of censorship attempts in 2025 were initiated by pressure groups swayed by them. This marks a 20-point increase of 2024. Donut chart. 40% board and administration. 31% elected officials and government. 21% pressure groups. 4% other or unknown. 3% parents. 1% patrons.

#Scotland is proud of Andrew Carnegie's legacy. He called the free public library a "cradle of #democracy". But US librarians who work in these places are under threat. #UniteAgainstBookBans #BannedBooksWeek #LetFreedomReadDay Watch the award winning documentary: thelibrariansfilm.com/streaming/
