Celebrate Banned Books Week with two fun scavenger hunts. Kids can explore the Children’s Room to uncover clues about challenged favorites, while teens and adults can test their knowledge with a banned book quest of their own. Discover stories once silenced—and the joy of finding them again. Please pick up a scavenger hunt list at the Info Desk between October 4 to 10. Small prizes are available for completion. This event is part of our annual Banned Books Week celebration . Request ADA accommodations for this event.
