Denver Library Yanks Spanish Books

Topic: 

The Associated Press Reports library workers are pulling thousands of Spanish-language comic books from the shelves following complaints of pornographic and violent content while officials determine whether some books should be permanently removed.

About 6,500 "fotonovelas," popular in Mexico and other Latin American countries, have been temporarily recalled from Denver Public Library branches, library spokeswoman Celeste Jackson said on Thursday. The review could be completed by next week.

Comments

This is sad considering the post by dcstone and the post by myself. I hope they plan on replacing this Spanish-language materials, since it appears the Hispanic population is quickly growing in Denver.
