LWV Saratoga County is a sponsor of this event. Member, Patricia Nugent, helped organize this event and will be reading that evening as well. We encourage our members to attend to show support for individual freedom and to bring a banned book to donate for the cause. (Banned titles are easily found

The event recognize the contributions of authors and illustrators amid the current national uptick in efforts to ban controversial books from libraries, suppressing conversations and the ability to think for ourselves.
