Global Issues Book Discussion: That Librarian
Sunday, September 6, 2026, 7–8:00 pm CETThe FAWCO Education Team has selected That Librarian: The Fight Against Book Banning in America by Amanda Jones as our next Global Issues read.
This is a book we believe will spark meaningful conversation across our FAWCO community. Amanda Jones, a small-town librarian in Louisiana, attended a library board meeting to advocate for diverse books and found her life turned upside down. She was harassed, threatened and publicly attacked. Rather than back down, she chose to stand up, even taking legal action against her harassers.
What makes this book especially compelling is how it moves between the deeply personal and the broader global context. Jones connects local book challenges to larger, organized efforts, offering an eye-opening look at what is at stake when access to diverse stories is restricted.
For us, as a global network of engaged citizens and advocates, this topic resonates far beyond one community or country, reflecting the broader issues of access, voice, and representation that shape our world.
The Education Team looks forward to coming together as a global community for this important discussion.
This event will be repeated on Wednesday, September 16 at 1 pm CET.
If you'd like to read more from Amanda Jones, you can find two short articles she has written on censorship and book-banning here and here.
