Kemper now:
I still agree.  I checked the City of Wasilla website.  Apparently,
they've been quite inundated with questions from the media.

They have a link to their policy in regards to the 'reconsidering' a
book as opposed to 'banning/censuring' one. On the same link is a list
of books that were publicly brought before the library for
reconsideration that date back pre-1986 to present.  There are only
four books, none of which were considered under Palin's term.

Going off topic sort of... One of the books was America (the book):A
Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction by Jon Steward (and friends). 
This book is hilarious!  If you haven't read it, I encourage you to
reconsider that personal decision. 

Here's a link to the city's link's regarding library (and other Palin
topics):
