I don't know why the books are "banned". But I will buy and reread Flowers for Algernon.

The page should be valid tomorrow and the next week, hopefully also for Danes.
Probably the link is not there all the time.

I found this online:

Banned Books Week: Celebrating the Freedom to Read

September 27−October 3, 2015

Banned Books Week is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. Typically held during the last week of September, it highlights the value of free and open access to information. Banned Books Week brings together the entire book community –- librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types –- in shared support of the freedom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular.
