BANNED BOOKS WEEK
LET FREEDOM READ
During Banned Books Week 2023!
October 1 – 7, 2023
The American Library Association has announced the theme for Banned Books Week 2023: “Let Freedom Read!” Banned Books Week will take place October 1 – 7, 2023.
This annual event highlights current and historical attempts to censor books in libraries and schools and the value of free and open access to information.
Banning books restricts information and discourages freedom of thought. It undermines one of the primary functions of education: teaching students how to think for themselves.
The 2023 Banned Books Week theme – ‘Let Freedom Read’ – captures what’s at stake for our democracy: that the safety of our right to speak and think freely is directly in proportion to our right to read.
