Original Note:
The linked piece does not suggest the books removals were "equity-based" - rather, the books removed were part of a routine review of books pre-2008 for damaged or out-of-date books. It was at this stage "some schools were removing books strictly based on publication date." https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/peel-school-board-library-book-weeding-1.6964332
