Across the country, teens are facing book bans, censorship and political challenges in their local school and public libraries. Here are just some of the ways they can get support from BPL:
Get Support
Contact BPL’s Intellectual Freedom Teen Council by emailing BooksUnbanned@bklynlibrary.org or sending a DM to @bklynfuture on Instagram.
Request a BookMatch
BookMatch Teen offers book recommendations for teens, by teens. Complete the form and a BookMatch Teen member will create a reading list of five titles just for you.
Report a Challenge
If you hear of a challenge at your local library, support your librarian and free and open access to library materials by contacting the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom.
Use Your Library
Books that are frequently challenged are available for checkout at your local library. We’ve made a selection of eBook & audiobook titles “Always Available” for BPL cardholders – no need to wait for a copy!
