#Alabama board defunds local #library after complaints over ‘#inappropriate’ books

By KIM CHANDLER
Updated 11:44 PM EDT, March 21, 2025

Excerpt:
"'I think that the GOP chair on the State Library Board is forcing the removal of books just because of anti-library extremists. I think that’s ignoring the voices of Fairhope taxpayers and library users,' said Amber Frey of #ReadFreely Alabama, an organization that has opposed the restrictions.

"The action against the Fairhope Library is the first taken under a new Alabama law and 2024 administrative code changes that say to receive state funding, local libraries must have policies to safeguard youth from 'sexually explicit or other material deemed inappropriate for children or youth.'"

#CarelessPeople, which my local system (Minuteman) has 8 copies, and now 594 people on the wait list. 72 copies on order.)

Hey, #bookstodon, I'm going to buy a physical book thats in high demand.

If I read it, and then donate it to my local #library, what are the odds that it goes into circulation, rather than, say, held for the next book sale?

DC Books to Prisons

One of the baffling and frustrating things about our work is that people sometimes donate to us #books that don't actually belong to them! The books in question are #library books, often borrowed from school #libraries. We aren't sure why people do this. Whatever the reason, donating checked-out library books to us basically puts us in the position of owning stolen property. Please, folks, if you have a checked-out library book, return it to the appropriate library yourself.
