Combat book censorship
Book Riot shared a spreadsheet for you to track your activism.
Jot down the work you do
Kelly Jensen in Book Riot a couple weeks ago gave 56 small actions to combat book censorship:
"Consider getting a journal or tracking what works and doesn’t work, how it felt to engage in the activity, what your takeaways were, and so forth...I’ve put every task below into a Google Spreadsheet for you to use in tracking, documenting, and including any notes that might help you along the way. The document is locked, so to edit it, you’ll need to go to File, then Make a Copy onto your own Google Drive."
A free resource for young people
Young readers in the US, ages 12–26, can get a free digital library card: booksunbanned.com. Though this project is sponsored by a handful of local libraries, the library patron can live anywhere in the US.
A free resource for everyone
Libraries are often free, so find one near you: search.worldcat.org/libraries
Reminder, as I wrote a couple months ago on Streetlights:
Tell your local librarian you support their fight against book bans
Your local library will know it can reach out to you about resisting book bans if and when the time comes.
