Next week (Sept. 26-Oct. 3) is Banned Books Week. According to the site: "Banned Books Week is the only national celebration of the freedom to read. It was launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in schools, bookstores and libraries." In recognition, the organization published a map, "Book Bans and Challenges, 2007-2009," showing banning actions, along with a list of events, suggested activities, etc. Via Nick Obourn - The Culture Spoke from True/Slant.
