I wanted to reach out with a question for y'all to see if you might have any suggestions. I've been doing some
</font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="blue"><u>library</u></font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="black">
</font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="blue"><u>coverage</u></font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="black"> for OPB this year, & am currently doing a bit of research into how book bans in libraries impact youth/students. 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
</font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="blue"><u>youth-centered project in NY</u></font><font face="Helvetica" size="+1" color="black"> - 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>
