The Jacksonville Public Library sent out an email titled “What’s Your Favorite Banned Book?” for an event this Saturday.

Agree or disagree with the policy, I don’t believe it’s the purview of a public library to wade into politics.

I'd like to see their list of banned books. I'd wager "banned" isn't the right word for them at all.

I wonder what their reaction will be when someone shows up to say their favorite banned book is the one describing to prepubescent readers how to perform [BLEEP].

Is that booked truly banned though? I don't know, but I bet parents who want their elementary school aged child to read it could obtain it from Amazon or B & N.

The Library is a division of the city government and should never touch anything politically charged.  The same is true for any other entity funded with tax dollars.  

Favorite mystery, romance, sci-fi, etc., fine; banned, no.
