| contents | Censorproofing School Library Collections: The Fallacy and Futility. Schrader, Alvin M. Censorship Codes of Ethics Criticism Elementary Secondary Education Library Collections Maturity (Individuals) Reader Response School Libraries Users (Information) Discusses why challenges to materials in school libraries cannot be avoided. Demonstrates how reader response theory, the multiple readings of text, makes self-censorship difficult. Explains how "censorproofing" by title, author/artist, and subject ignores reader unpredictability and maturity levels. Finds all school libraries vulnerable to criticism, censorproofing is in opposition to professional responsibility, and suggests alternatives. (LAM) |
