I'd love to find a youth or student activist or group in Oregon to talk to about resisting book bans and/or increasing access to literature for students. My colleagues at OPB have covered various proposed book bans in specific places in Oregon - for this I'm thinking of a broader conversation about the issue that may not necessarily be tied to a specific locale/school district/book.<br><br>I'm wondering if anyone from your committee knows of youth or student groups who are doing work around this issue in Oregon? For instance, one thing I saw with great interest is this <a href="https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned" target="_blank" title="https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned">youth-centered project in NY</a> - and I noticed this library system had an Intellectual Freedom teen council. But I'm unsure if anything like that currently exists in Oregon!<br><br>If anything comes to mind, please let me know. Thank you!<br><br>Cheers,<br>Jenn</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></body></html>
