Teaching frequently challenged books can be a daunting task. Banned books are guaranteed to contain controversial subject matter, demanding thoughtful and provoking dialogue. Banned books in a library or classroom can also lead to conversations of censorship and free speech. Yet the reward outweighs the risks, since books that make the American Library Association’s list of frequently challenged titles remain students’ timeless favorites. Find inspiration from these resources for studying banned books.
A Library card and PIN will be required to access many of the resources listed. Need help with your card or PIN? Contact your nearest location or call 419-259-5200. Need a new card?
