My vague plan for next year's banned book week is to collect banned books all this next year and hand them out, free, during next year's banned books week.
Book banning is insidious. The people who try to ban books often do so very quietly or they just go into libraries, check the books out and then "loose" them.
The best way to fight it, is to be loud about it and call them on it. My least favorite are those that try to ban books they have not read! Grrrr!
It's cool that you're in B'more! I'm in Gaithersburg in Mont. Co.
