Banned books: 7th December
Marty Wade, National Librarian in the National Library of Scotland, presents Gain’s Book (1960) by Alexander Trocchi.
The Entresse Library in Espoo, Finland and FAIFE (IFLA Committee on Freedom of Access to Information and Freedom of Expression) have together created the world’s first Banned Books video calendar. The project has garnered international attention and is considered pioneering in many ways. Every day in December 2011 a banned book is presented.
