Six Statements/Questions from the Censors.
Donelson, Ken
Phi Delta Kappan, v69 n3 p208-14 Nov 1987

The "secular humanism" controversy has provoked such diverse moral and legal meanings that librarians often avoid book selections. Educators can make informed decisions about good literature, even if the reality depicted appears disturbing. (CJH)
