FIGHT BACK AGAINST BOOK BANS!

In response to the emergence of nationwide political groups organizing to remove books from library shelves, NCAC has created the Right to Read Network (RRN). RRN is a NATIONAL NETWORK of freedom-to-read affiliates in communities across the United States. Affiliates are ACTIVISTS fighting back against the removal of books from libraries AT THE LOCAL LEVEL.

The Right to Read Network will provide access to authors, legal support, written and digital resources, and best practices to establish a standard “playbook” for local affiliates working to FIGHT BOOK BANNING.
