Hi Jamie and everyone!
The morning announcer on the radio station we listen to has a game called
"Impossible Trivia" where people call in to answer the question he asks.
This morning's question was: "This week is banned books week. What book
was banned the longest in the United States?"
The answer was "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", which is in the
collection, of course.
The announcer said that when he was in high school he had an English
teacher who worked to get banned books read, so the teacher had them read
"The Catcher in the Rye" and "To Kill a Mockingbird."

I was thinking that first book was probably not an easy scan. Maybe the
outsourcers will tackle that one? Any book with all that IM speak is a
hard scan. The last one I did I spent a lot of time on and then a PQ
version made it into the collection just before mine did.
I am looking for the list of all 460 books that were reported as banned
books in 2009. It's just interesting to see what kinds of books are "banned".
