[Libs-Or] OLA/OIFC Statement and Findings - MSD/Handmaid's Tale

[Intellectual Freedom Committee]

Hello OLA community,
Yesterday OLA and the OIFC published a Statement of the OIFC review and
findings regarding Medford School District's removal of "The Handmaid's
Tale: The Graphic Novel".  Each month the OIFC publishes a "Tuesday Topic"
but for this month, it seemed more important to highlight this statement
and findings.  Therefore, please see the linked statement.

If you have any questions, or you have a need for policies and updates as
described in this statement, please feel free to reach out to the OIFC!  We
are here to help avoid situations like this in the future and would love to
be a support network to you all.  Please see our toolkit here:

Thank you all! And happy Banned Books Week!
Emily - OIFC Chair
