Harris Poll Shows Growing Support for Book Banning, Ratings; Library Journal, 7/31/15

Lisa Peet, Library Journal; Harris Poll Shows Growing Support for Book Banning, Ratings:
"A recent Harris poll on attitudes about book banning and school libraries revealed that out of the 2,244 U.S. adults surveyed in March 2015, the percentage who felt that certain books should be banned increased by more than half since the last similar study conducted in 2011. In addition, more believe that some books deserve to be banned than movies, television shows, or video games."
