Read them if you dare! Banned Books Week is being marked at the library by an intriguing assortment of banned books that are hidden from view with covers that highlight why they have been challenged. Check these out on the cart across from the Circulation Desk. Just around the corner are 20 campus celebrities, each hugging their favorite banned book.
