A local church is urging its members to permanently remove books from the Shelby County Public Library by checking them out and never returning them. The books portray gay characters and historical figures or explore LGBTQ+ themes.
Pamela Wilson Federspiel, who has been director of the library in downtown Shelbyville for 34 years, says the action is tantamount to “stealing.”
But three leaders of the Reformation Church of Shelbyville defend what they call an “act of civil disobedience.”

Return them. Give someone else the chance to enjoy them too.
My library doesn’t charge late fees for children’s books, but does for other books.

Shame on you.

Yes, I can tell you don’t value them, or the hard work of librarians and enrichment of other readers.

Chill yourself. A stranger online disapproves of your actions and said something to try and get you to change your behavior. Take the L and give their books back.
Bruh.
