Covert Censorship


Moody, K. (2005). Covert censorship in libraries: A discussion paper. Australian Library Journal, 54(2), 138-147.

How does Moody's discussion relate to your experience in school libraries?

Reading Moody’s article has revealed to me many aspects of censorship that I would not have ever thought of. This was a thought provoking article that has highlighted censorship issues that I may have been guilty of if working in a library. It appears that there is no escape from commercialism and politics as they continue to challenge the freedom of uncensored information through policy, repetition and bright fancy advertisements.
