We can’t put our feelings about book bans into a single image, but we CAN encourage everyone to read a banned book! Banned Books Week is October 4-10, 2026, and this year’s theme is “Let Books Be. Protect the Freedom to Read.”

How can you get involved with Banned Books Week? Check out a banned book from our collection, visit our Censorship display on the Library’s lower-level, and stop by our Banned Books table on Thursday, 10/8, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. in Partnership Hall for fun games and free swag!

Check out the Top 16 Most Banned Books in America here: library.cod.edu/censorship/mostbannedbooks

Their love story: “Surrounded by Idiots” got hella lost at outdoor orientation but was saved by “The Natural Navigator,” a super chill granola babe. They totally vibe over getting away from people, but “Surrounded by Idiots” eventually gets “The Natural Navigator” into the human world and they are endgame.

Want to join in the matchmaking fun for our books this summer? Head over to our 3rd floor glass display to create a love story for a pair of lonely books and then visit the 3rd floor Reference desk to collect a prize. We eagerly await your love story creations!
