Banned Books Week 2024 In-Person
Celebrate the freedom to read this Banned Books Week (September 22-28) with CIA Gund Library! Visit our hallway display in-person or online to see banned and challenged titles available at CIA Library and learn more about the data behind book bans.
In 2023, 4,240 unique titles were targeted for removal in US libraries and schools, according to the American Library Association’s Office of Intellectual Freedom. This is a 65% increase in the number of titles that were targeted in 2022 (2,571). 47% of those titles represented the voices and lived experiences of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ people and Ohio was one of 17 states where attempts to censor more than 100 titles occurred.
