But three times?
since she never actually requested that any book be banned i dont see the problem
and it would depend on what and why she was asking

In favor of banning books? Not really

Perhaps moving the Bible or something like that into a better place in the library or something.

She'd probably want to ban any books on Global Warming, Anti-Religion,etc. That's if she wants to ban books I'm saying.

Though I think we can all agree if there is one book that should be banned, it's the turner diaries.
