The GLBT Round Table will feature a discussion of book challenges, censorship and banned books as part of its ALA Midwinter Conference schedule. The event is scheduled for Saturday, January 26 from 10:30 to 11:30 at the The Fairmont Olympic Hotel, 411 University Street, Seattle, WA.
The session will feature Angela Maycock, Assistant Director of the Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF), providing a brief overview of how to deal with a challenge and the work of the OIF in dealing with challenges and bans. There will be a chance for questions to both Ms. Maycock and librarians who have dealt with these situations in their libraries.
This event doesn’t yet show up on the ALA MW Scheduler. Any plans to have it added?
