Banned Books Week 2017 - Words Have Power

Every year at the end of September, libraries and bookstores across the U.S. celebrate Banned Books Week.  This celebration began to highlight the value of free and open access to information.  This year, RBLibrary participated by creating multiple displays of books that have been challenged or banned and took part in the American Library Association's #RebelReaders Twitter contest.
Here are some pictures of the fun our #RebelReaders had during Banned Books Week!
