[Michlib-l] Unite Against Book Bans Book Résumés

[Daniel Patton]

Check out these "book résumés" for popular, and often challenged, youth books. bookresumes.uniteagainstbookbans.org<https://bookresumes.uniteagainstbookbans.org/>

"Created in partnership with dozens of publishers and with information provided by publishers, librarians, and School Library Journal, Unite Against Book Bans book résumés are easy-to-print documents designed to help support readers’ access to books that are targeted by censors. Each book résumé summarizes the book’s significance and educational value, including a synopsis, reviews from professional journals, awards, accolades, and more. Where possible, the book résumés also include information about how a title has been successfully retained in school districts and libraries after a demand to censor the book. These documents are in a PDF format that can be downloaded and printed for easy sharing with administrators, book review committees, and the public at board meetings." - ALA press release
