[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a reason parents object to some of these books being available in school libraries. 
This is not "banning."

 I am a parent. 
I do not object. 
A small portion of parents don’t get to dictate to everyone. [/quote]

I’m a school librarian. 25 years running. Pretty sure I haven’t corrupt anyone on my watch. My own children read whatever they wanted to. They’re all successful adults. 
Trust professionals. [/quote]

I'm a former teacher and a parent of two.  These books are not appropriate for school libraries. 
And, since tax dollars fund the purchase of books, we do indeed get a say in books available to students. 
Purchase the classics.  Purchase appropriate literature. Leave the smut for parents to purchase for their own children.  
And, sorry - we have seen over the past 3 years that blind trust in professionals is naive.  [/quote]

The classics - you mean like Lady Chatterly's Lover and The Tropic of Cancer and Ulysses? Those classics? Or do you agree with the censors of the last century that those classics are filled with smut and should be banned?

There's smut in the Bible. I bet you don't want to ban that, though.[/quote]
