Banned Books Week 2024 India. The theme this year is “freed between the lines!” Banned books week is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the worthwhile endeavor of resisting censorship.
The annual event highlights the value of free and open access to information and brings together the entire book community — librarians, educators, authors, publishers, booksellers, and readers of all types. Taking place september 22nd through september 28th, banned books week 2024 encourages us to reflect on the increasing waves of censorship, and to acknowledge the importance of libraries in maintaining access to all narratives and ideas—even those considered controversial.
