Abstract

In March 2024, the American Library Association reported a “record number of unique book titles challenged in 2023.” These challenges can have a chilling effect on the work of librarians seeking to collect materials inclusive of human identities, religions, and experiences. The LRTS editors asked current American Library Association President Cindy Hohl to consider the intersection of book challenges and collection development in academic libraries.
