After drawing national scorn for their book review policy the board of Hamilton East Public Library has reversed their decision to transfer more than 1,300 books out of the Young Adult section of the library on the grounds of objectionable content. This was in many ways the brainchild of Micah Beckwith who is currently seeking office for the Lt. Governor of Indiana. This debate connects with a 1959 conversation held between Mike Wallace and the Publisher President of Random House, Bennett Cerf spoke out against censorship and stood up for the good taste and individual choice of readers everywhere.
