Can you identify a banned book from its shredded pages? Stop by the library this week for an exciting guessing game that celebrates intellectual freedom and the right to read!

We've taken a frequently challenged book, shredded its pages, and placed them in a clear jar at our front desk. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to examine the fragments and guess the title of this banned literary work.

How to Participate

1. Visit the East Mesa or Espina library during our regular hours

2. Locate the "Shredded Banned Book" jar at the front desk

3. Study the shredded pages carefully

4. Submit your guess 

Don't worry - no actual books were harmed in the making of this game. We've used copies of the pages to create this interactive display.

Win a Prize!

Put your literary detective skills to the test for a chance to win a $10 Barnes & Noble gift card. The winner will be announced next week, so be sure to check back.

Why It Matters

This activity is part of our Banned Books Week celebration, an annual event that highlights the importance of free and open access to information. By participating, you're joining a nationwide conversation about censorship and the freedom to read.
