Banned Books Week 2015
Banned Books Week, the annual celebration of the freedom to read, will be held from September 27 to October 3, 2015, in schools, libraries, and bookstores across the nation and worldwide. The focus of this year’s event will be Young Adult books, a common target for censorship.
The celebration was founded in 1982 in reaction to the frequent challenges to books in schools, libraries, and other public settings.
