Dismayed, but sadly not surprised to read this - it reflects the findings from our own public libraries study, which we published last November ("Resisting Hate & Navigating Agitation: Perspectives & Voices Of Public Library Staff & Librarians Against Reactionary Responses To LGBTQ+ Materials").

Librarians in UK increasingly asked to remove books, as influence of US pressure groups spreads
