Banned Books 2024 Ala. Members of ala are invited to join penguin random house, booklist, and unite against book bans for a special banned books week event that premieres the video of ibram x. It brings together the entire book community — librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types — in shared support of the freedom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular.

In an index survey of uk school librarians, 53% of respondents said they had been asked to remove books, with more than half of those requests coming from parents. By focusing on efforts across the country to remove or restrict access to books, banned books week draws national attention to the harms of censorship.
