As part of an initiative against censorship, any teenager in America is eligible for a Brooklyn Public Library card. This will allow teens in states with book bans to check out ebooks and audiobooks at BPL. A select list is made “always available,” in other words, no waiting.
Dazed and Defrosted by Nina Mansfield:
"1984’s Teacher of the Year returns to the classroom after being cryogenically frozen for 35 years only to discover that shoulder pads aren’t in, she can’t smoke in the teacher’s lounge, and the parents are no longer on her side."
