Freedom to Read Week

Posted on 09:08 by Unknown
February 24 - March 2, 2013 is Freedom to Read Week in Canada. This week (and really every week), Canadians are encouraged to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom.

The Stratford Public Library likes to think that we have something to offend everyone. We collect books, magazines and dvds on all different subjects - including those titles most frequently challenged.

Here is a listing of many of the books that have been  challenged over the past few decades and are in our collection.  Have you read any of them? What did you think? Share your thoughts in our library catalogue.
