Banned Books Week celebrates the freedom to choose and express one's opinion even if that opinion might be considered unorthodox or unpopular, and stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of all viewpoints to those who wish to read them. This year marks the 30th Anniversary of Banned Books Week.
