Meet a Banned Book

In this interactive event, volunteers bring challenged and censored titles to life—embodying the voices behind the books. Patrons can “check out” these living books for one-on-one conversations about the stories, the bans and the battles fought to keep them on shelves. Come explore the power of literature, the impact of censorship and the enduring strength of ideas that defend intellectual and creative freedom.  This event is being coordinated by the student group Beyond the Book.

Sponsored by Syracuse University Libraries; College of Arts & Sciences' English Department, Religion Department, LGBT Studies, Women's and Gender Studies; and the School of Education.
