庆祝自由阅读

2分读

By Traci Cothran

读书是,一切都要在大风和什么在这里做金宝搏彩票BBWyou do at your library every day—so it’s a good bet the majority of us use Banned Books Week to rally around the works that cause a little controversy. This year’s禁书周focuses on celebrating Diversity, and runs September 25 – October 1.

我是中档和年轻成人小说的忠实读者,所以它驱使我当父母禁止惊人的小说,为青年说话有点古怪。一些作者甚至从学校出现谈论他们的书,今天影响孩子的问题DIS-邀请。举例来说,图形新颖戏剧,由雷纳·特尔格梅耶尔,目前已造成牢骚两个同性恋角色接吻,但我还没有遇到一个初中女孩谁不喜欢这个系列。作者梅格·梅迪纳面临审查与她有关高中欺负小说,Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass,because the title has a swear word in it—and you know such language is决不说在学校的走廊!凯特·梅斯纳尔失望了,邀请了来自一所学校来说订婚,而在巡演她的书,The Seventh Wish,because the main character’s sister struggles with a heroin addiction, affecting the whole family. But there’s no reason to talk about the real-life heroin epidemic affecting kids in high schools and middle schools across the U.S., is there?

当然,它很容易冠军多样性和言论自由,如果你不是一个听到顾客对书的关注。它可以是很难权衡不同的观点,并要感谢的是每个人谁这个问题抓斗图书管理员。我们尊重每个人作出关于他们读什么个人选择的权利,并承认至关重要的作用图书馆和馆员在玩日复一日为大家提供不同的阅读材料。
