Original Note:
According to the American Library Association, both liberal and conservative groups have been involved in book challenges, and most fail to remove books from classroom or library shelves completely. However, any book that's challenged is considered to be a "banned book". https://abcnews.go.com/US/conservative-liberal-book-bans-differ-amid-rise-literary/story?id=96267846 https://www.pbs.org/newshour/arts/the-most-banned-and-challenged-books-of-2022 https://pen.org/report/banned-in-the-usa-state-laws-supercharge-book-suppression-in-schools/
