in a deeply conservative city in Wyoming coal-mining country, saying he wouldn't have a case.
The books are “This Book is Gay” by Juno Dawson, “How Do You Make a Baby” by Anna Fiske, “Doing It” by Hannah Witton, “Sex is a Funny Word” by Cory Silverberg, and “Dating and Sex: A Guide for the 21st Century Teen Boy” by Andrew P. Smiler. Stulken didn't review “This Book is Gay” because he didn't get a copy, he wrote. The library board voted Monday to uphold a decision by library staff that moving “This Book is Gay” out of the teen section would be censorship, theStulken's opinion appeared to be thoroughly researched, the library's executive director, Terri Lesley, said Thursday. “I'm happy to have this decision made so that we can move on,” Lesley said by email.
The couple still believe it's wrong to use public money to keep such books in the library youth sections, Bennett said.
