Abstract
- The article addresses the issue of soft censorship within libraries, discussing instances where diverse books have faced resistance and challenges in being added to collections and how such practices hinder the diversification of library collections and weaken the profession's stance against censorship. It emphasizes the need for self-reflection, cultural competence and standing up for marginalized voices and narratives as strategies to combat soft censorship and promote diversity in libraries.
