La censura de libros en bibliotecas ha crecido de manera preocupante en los últimos años y está afectando especialmente a las bibliotecas públicas y escolares con porcentajes que crecen cada año. Las propuestas de prohibición de libros las realizan habitualmente los padres a través de juntas escolares o ciudadanas, usuarios y grupos políticos y religiosos, bien por el tema del que tratan o por motivos lingüísticos, étnicos o de integrismo religioso. Frente a ellas el personal bibliotecario se mantiene alerta y muestra su resistencia denunciando los casos o prestando ayuda legal a través de las asociaciones profesionales, pero también otras iniciativas como la celebración de la Semana del Libro Prohibido, la puesta a disposición de ejemplares prohibidos, la colocación de distintivos en los libros para llamar la atención sobre lo censurado o mostrar cómo se seleccionan los libros en las bibliotecas. Abstract Book censorship in libraries has risen in a worrying way in recent years, especially affecting public and school libraries, with percentages of censorship increasing year on year. Proposals to ban books are usually made by parents through school or citizen boards, library users, and political and religious groups either because of the subject matter they deal with or due to linguistic, ethnic or religious fundamentalist reasons. In response to this, librarians remain vigilant and show their resistance by denouncing cases or providing legal assistance through professional associations. Other initiatives such as the celebration of Banned Books Week, making banned copies available, placing labels on books to draw attention to what is censored or showing how books are selected in libraries are also being launched.
