  • My Favorite Banned Books from Past Years - A personal recollection of some outstanding books that were banned or challenged in the past ten years, most available from RUL.
  • Banned Books: Animal Farm Revisited - It may not sound like the most important book in 2024, but Animal Farm is still one of the most indicative texts to help understand why any group would challenge the reading preferences of another.
