Morinville Community Library staff member Amy Maxwell poses with two of the many books in the library’s collection that have been banned or challenged over the years. Freedom to Read Week is an annual event encouraging Canadians to think about the intellectual freedoms guaranteed to them under the Chart of Rights and Freedoms. This year’s Freedom to Read Week is organized by the Book and Periodical Council and runs from February 19 to 25. The library has a display of books that have been challenged and banned as well as notes on why they were challenged. – Stephen Dafoe Photo
