Kick off your ASU journey with a walking tour of Hayden Library, located in the heart of the Tempe campus. Experience Hayden Library's revamped five-story tower featuring tech-powered learning labs, student-focused book collections, inspiring reading rooms and support services designed for you.
Join us for the kickoff to ASU Library's Banned Book Week in partnership with Project Humanities. We will be screening Banned Together followed by a short community discussion regarding the film. Banned Together follows three students as they fight to reinstate 97 books suddenly pulled from their school libraries. As they evolve from local to national activists, the film reveals the forces behind the accelerating wave of book bans in the United States and the ongoing challenges of educators and librarians.
