The idea of censorship in school libraries as opposed to other libraries is an interesting issue to discuss further….. Obviously there will be resources that are inappropriate for whatever reason for students. How does one censor certain materials in a K-12 school?
What a conversation to be had…. Freedom to access all knowledge VS materials that may coerce, promote or distort information, and this being available to young malleable minds…
Filtering as censorship- in regard to school content filter programs is another interesting discussion. From personal experiencing, the over-filtering creates more problems for teachers than I feel it protects students from harmful information.
When does censorship of certain materials (perhaps identified in the collection management policy) stop being done properly and become an opinion or personal moral standpoint of the Teacher Librarian (TL)? Self-censorship?
