Want to Fight Book Bans? Start Here.

Book Riot | 09.10.2026 17:00
It’s Banned Books Week, which means book banning and censorship are getting more coverage than usual. Kelly Jensen is out this week, but she spends the entire year reporting on censorship news in the Literary Activism newsletter. If Banned Books Week has inspired you to join (or rejoin) the fight for freedom to read, here’s the best way to get started. Kelly wrote this list of “60+ Small Tasks to Defend the Right to Read” at the start of the year, but now is a great time to get started.
