Testimonials from Spring 2024:

"The multiple presenters in this course covered in-detail ways in which I can protect myself, my library, and our staff throughout a wide range of events related to censorship and intellectual freedom. I left with clear action items on steps to take in both the short and long term to move forward in this turbulent time. This was such a powerful course, with such great information, that I would encourage every library to have at least one member of their staff attend it."

— Zach W., Adult Services Librarian

"[This] is a course that every school librarian, as well as every school administrator, should attend to learn how to deal with book challenges. The course gives practical strategies to use when confronted with a book challenge. I highly recommend it."

— Lisa J., High School Librarian
