Original Note:
A banned book list tracked by PEN America shows one district in Minnesota has one book banned pending investigation, and that was against district regulations. In this context, banning refers to removing from the classroom and/or library and not just from curriculum. https://m.startribune.com/minnesota-and-the-un-banned-book-list/600251652/ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1hTs_PB7KuTMBtNMESFEGuK-0abzhNxVv4tgpI5-iKe8/htmlview# https://pen.org/report/banned-usa-growing-movement-to-censor-books-in-schools/ https://ncac.org/news/wayzata-library-lawn-boy-book-removed
