This year marks the 27th anniversary of Banned Books Week, which was created by the American Library Association to remind Americans not to take this precious democratic freedom for granted. It celebrates the freedom to choose or the freedom to express one’s opinion even if that opinion might be considered unorthodox or unpopular and stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of those unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints to all who wish to read them. In celebration of this tradition, members of the campus community will be reading Top 100 Challenged/Banned Books from 200-2007 (PDF) Virginia Smith and Rebecca Simms read from Lysistrata Rebecca Simms Start: 9:00 am
