The 1st image below is Q3 from last year’s AP Lit exam; the 2nd is the same list w/o the books that would be banned from schools under HB 900 (books in blue would require parental permission). The bill goes to the House floor TODAY. Texans, please tell your rep to oppose HB900

A win! Texas Federal District Court Orders Censored Books Returned to Library Shelves in Llano County
@OIF and @FTRF are proud to have supported patrons and staff as they prepared to challenge the book bans in federal court. https://t.co/iyoUQBqkx0

@BoyntonLibrary So good! The audiobook is excellent as well

We also have a lot of new tech - am thinking of ways to promote use during study halls/free periods, but I want to see Ss wishes and ideas first.

#librarytwitter #schoollibrarians I’m building on teen programs but want student suggestions on what they want to do. No emails/forms, I’m doing a question on a whiteboard, but I’m too wordy. Any suggestions?

[ALA Public Policy & Advocacy @LibraryPolicy]

Advocates across the country are making their voices heard & urging Congress to #FundLibraries. We need your support - deadlines in the House are approaching!

Take action & remind Congress why federal funding for libraries is critical for your community: https://t.co/SycS5fre78

The wave of censorship sweeping classrooms and libraries is absolutely shameful.
