YORK, N.Y., August 5, 2008–The American Booksellers Foundation for Free
Expression
(ABFFE) and the American Library Association (ALA) announced today that
they
are launching a Web site to help bookstores and libraries promote
Banned Books
Week, which will be held this year from Sept. 27 through Oct. 4. The
Web
site, <span class="SYSHYPERTEXT"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
target="_blank" href="http://w%20%20ww.bannedbooksweek.org">www.bannedbooksweek.org</a></span>,
is intended to
help the public learn about Banned Books Week and suggest ways they can
support
it. The key feature of the Web site will be a list that visitors can
use
to find participating bookstores and libraries in their communities.
“Hundreds
of bookstores and libraries participate in Banned Books Week every
year.
Bannedbooksweek.org will make it easy for the public to find them,”
ABFFE
President Chris Finan said. Judith F. Krug, director of the ALA’s
Office for Intellectual Freedom, said the Web site will help promote
Banned
Books Week nationally as well as provide support for local efforts.
“We wanted to increase the attention for Banned Books Week on the Web
while simultaneously providing increased support for the bookstores and
libraries
that are mounting displays and sponsoring free speech events,” she said.<!-- span--></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span
style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"> Bookstores
and libraries that would like to be listed on the new Web site can
submit
details of their Banned Books Week celebration directly to the Web
site.
