I am going by the article that was linked in the first post. By refusing to remove a controversial book from circulation the librarians took a side on a social issue. I happen to agree with them, but it was still taking a side. If it had been a book promoting violent white nationalism or pedophilia I would have agreed with those who felt that it did not belong in a public library.
