What do "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," and "The Grapes of Wrath" have in common? It's true that they're all novels, but they've also been suppressed or banned for various reasons. Check out the west side of the display case near the entrance of the Library Learning Resources building for a display of these and other books that have been banned on religious, social, political, or sexual grounds. The display continues on the low shelves behind the Reference Desk.
"Books and ideas are the most effective weapons against intolerance and ignorance."--Lyndon Baines Johnson
