To the Editor;
On the topic of banning books in our school libraries: Our forefathers guaranteed certain freedoms in this country. Uneducated narrow-mindedness and bigotry, should not be allowed in our school system. Libraries should contain books that inform and appeal to all. If you don’t like a book, don’t read it. The choice is yours but the ability to choose must be there. Don’t let a few people govern our choices.
Sharon Schneider, Mattapoisett
