[CASL-L] Looking for thoughts regarding challenged books

[Michele Lane]

Good morning,

Here is a question I'd love some responses to:

What proactive steps do you take for books regarding sensitive topics in
this day and age?
Specifically, books where the characters are in a school setting and there
is a threat to students? ex: Give a Boy a Gun, Time Bomb, etc?

Thoughts on two levels:
1. As a librarian with freedom of choice  and
2. as a librarian who has teachers that may place books in hands of
students saying, 'you should read this'.
