From the ALA: Banned Books Week is an annual event, hosted by the American Library Asociation, celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Banned Books Week highlights the importance of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted bannings of books across the United States.
