on the final day of 2024’s Banned Book Week, I’d like to share some artful commentary on the subject by my clever and talented brother, cartoonist extraordinaire, Bill Barnes. [Unshelved is a comic strip about a library, co-created by librarian Gene Ambaum and cartoonist Bill Barnes.] (1/8)

Unshelved is a comic strip about a library, created by librarian Gene Ambaum and cartoonist Bill Barnes.

This 2013 image is a multi panel comic strip about children's access to books in a library.

A cheerful librarian tells a child they can check out any reachable book. The librarian helps the child reach a higher shelf. The same child questions if they can read a book deemed too advanced. The boy explains his teacher said the book is above his reading level, to which the librarian responds encouragingly, suggesting that the boy can look at the pictures. Another librarian voices concerns over the library’s policy. The librarian reflects on the importance of reading freedom versus responsible lending, reflecting the idea that there should be no limits to learning and exploring through reading

The comic addresses literacy, parental concerns, and the role of libraries, with a light-hearted, and occasional snarky tone
