It is censorship if those books are not included for a specific reason. “We aren’t including this book in the library because we don’t have space for every book.” <—— not censorship “We aren’t including this book because we don’t think it’s appropriate for kids to learn about trans people.” <—- censorship | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> “We aren’t including this book because we don’t think it’s appropriate for kids to learn about trans people.” <—- censorship Removing books from public libraries (not just schools) because we find criticism of certain ideas around gender to be offensive <-- definitely censorship | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Playboy was never in school libraries either, basically because children aren't adults. Isn't this basic curation and child protection, not censorship? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Since there are no libraries with space for every book (ever), then there is no censorship? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
