Abstract

This presentation is a case study of how the New York City College of Technology, Ursula C. Schwerin Library has promoted banned books from it's collection. The audience will have a better understanding of how the library's social media and "blind" book display has played a role in exposing students to the controversies of censorship. This presentation would also be useful for those working with and in academic libraries and/or commuter college campuses.
