[OPLINLIST] Banned Books Week

[Kent Oliver]

I hope all Ohio public libraries are celebrating Banned Books Week this week in some fashion or form.  The following is a link to an NPR story from this last Tuesday regarding the history of the banning of The Grapes of Wrath and a new book out concerning that event.
