Comment on Banned in the USA: The Growing Movement to Censor Books in Schoolsparent

Comments

The page addresses how this is different than filtering books for appropriateness:

It is important to recognize that books available in schools, whether in a school or classroom library, or as part of a curriculum, were selected by librarians and educators as part of the educational offerings to students. Book bans occur when those choices are overridden by school boards, administrators, teachers, or even politicians, on the basis of a particular book’s content.
