Banned Books Week Trivia

Banned Books Week Trivia

EVENT POSTPONED!

Due to low signups, the Library will be postponing Trivia Night to later in the semester. 

Sign up to receive an update for a reschedule date and time.

 

Prizes for the winning team!

Test your censored knowledge of banned and challenged books at a Library trivia night in honor of Banned Books Week! Here's a fact to start: efforts to challenge unique titles of books in American libraries surged 65% in 2023 compared to 2022 numbers. This is the highest level of book challenges ever documented by the American Library Association in a year. 

Gather your team of no more than three to answer four rounds of trivia questions about banned and challenged books, their film adaptations, and related facts. Compete for prizes, meet other book and media lovers, and learn about intellectual freedom and censorship along the way.

Enjoy pizza and drinks while supplies last. You must register your team ahead of time to compete.
