What do Jodi Picoult’s My Sister’s Keeper, Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner, John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World have in common?

In addition to being acknowledged as literary classics or among the best of recent novels, they were among the dozens of books that groups attempted to ban from school or public libraries in the United States during the past two years. To honor the ongoing battle to preserve Americans’ freedom to read, a Banned Books Reading will be held on the steps of Florida State University’s Strozier Library on Wednesday, Sept. 30, from 12:15 to 1:15 p.m.

The event is co-sponsored by the Friends of the Florida State University Libraries, the English Department and the School of Library & Information Studies’ student chapter of the American Library Association. FSU administrators, faculty and students will read brief excerpts from a variety of books. John Fenstermaker, the Fred L. Standley professor of English and president of the Friends of the Florida State University Libraries, will preside.

Banned Books Week was created in 1982 by the American Library Association in response to a surge in challenges to books in schools, libraries and bookstores. The ALA’s Office of Intellectual Freedom reported 513 challenges in 2008 alone, but it estimates that this reflects only 20 to 25 percent of actual incidents, because most go unreported.

Florida public library outlets and K-12 public schools reported inadequate connection speeds and insufficient workstations to serve patrons in a needs assessment report recently issued by the Information Use Management Policy Institute at The Florida State University College of Communication & Information. The research, funded by a contract from the State Library and Archives of Florida, found that broadband services in Florida public libraries were inadequate for E-government and emergency/disaster management needs of patrons because of current Internet connectivity costs and speeds. While current economic conditions are forcing more Florida residents to use libraries for completing online job applications, for undertaking tasks required by government agencies, and for assistance during emergencies and disasters, public libraries lack adequate broadband speeds and bandwidth, equipment, and technical staff.

The Information Institute report was used by State Library and Archives of Florida to produce a grant application submitted to the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP) of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) at the U.S. Department of Commerce.
