North Dakota seems to be a problematic place. Are they really going to send librarians to jail for stocking dirty books ?
This seems to be absurd on a taliban level. It seems like the argument has moved on from protecting the kids to protecting the adults. What sort of libraraies will these places be ?
Will Librarians be expected to read every book on their shelves to protect themselves ? I would if I was threatened with a jail sentence.
Libraries are places of learning. Where we go to learn about the world. This bill seems to be the antithesis of that aim. These people are bringing shame to America.
