Even the most permissive parents wouldn’t want their children’s school library to subscribe to Hustler or carry Mein Kampf. That doesn’t make them “book banners.”
Of the 7 districts where I worked (as teacher, librarian, and administrator) had a policy for selection of library materials and a process for dealing with complaints about books. The policies worked. The current situation has been created to as a tool to advance certain political ambitions. Books are not the real issue and they have never been the problem. I hope people see the reality and don't become embroiled in the false narrative.
