There are no state wide bans on books, however school districts just as in any state are free to make decisions on books from district to district. There are guidelines by law to determine what is age appropriate based on race, gender and sexuality content. https://www.verifythis.com/article/news/verify/education-verify/desantis-banned-book-claim-fact-check/536-45201eb2-7f37-43a8-a494-4123510d3db6 https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/theres-confusion-over-book-bans-in-florida-schools-heres-why/2023/03 https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/more-than-350-books-banned-in-florida-schools-since-last-july-16817328 https://news.wfsu.org/state-news/2023-03-06/students-fight-book-bans-as-the-scope-of-a-new-florida-law-expands
