A group said an Idaho library gives 'smut filled pornography' to kids. What's next?

A group of Idaho residents is accusing the Meridian Library of distributing “smut filled pornography” to children.

But library and city officials say the library has a “diverse and inclusive” collection of materials that reflect the interests of the community, and that people should have the right to choose what they read.

Still, they worry as efforts to ban library books swell across the state and nationwide. Just three months ago, the school board in neighboring Nampa voted to remove 23 books from school libraries.

“What concerns me is that this small, really vocal but small, group of kind of authoritarians really wants to decide what everybody in Meridian can read,” said Megan Larsen, the board chair of the Meridian Library District. “And that’s just unacceptable.”
