Check out the 11/28/16 issue of Intellectual Freedom News. This week’s issue includes information about the new effort to label books “sexually explicit” in Virginia schools and the public responses to it. There is a new section to inform our readers of hate speech in libraries. And among many other articles and information is “the right to be forgotten” and a book challenge to Bad Kitty for President by Nick Bruel.
