The librarian in Dublin told me my banned books display was too political, so now I hide them in the returns cart
She said the shelf made people uncomfortable, so I started slipping the same 4 titles into the return bin where everyone has to touch them, and checkouts actually went up 30% in a month, anyone else ever get told their free speech display was "too aggressive" for a public library?

Wait, does hiding them in the returns cart count as a form of protest or just good old fashioned library chaos? Because I love it either way. My own attempt at a banned books thing got shut down when someone said the cover art was "too much for a Tuesday." Meanwhile the true crime shelf next to it has actual murder photos on the spines, so make that make sense.
