TAR:Censorship help

[Dashannon Lovin <lovind@BLANCHESTER.K12.OH.US>]

I have searched the archives, ALA, Ebsco, and other databases, sent some
emails and surfed the web for help and now I also ask for any help you
can send.
Our English 9 reads Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men as a classroom read and
it has been challenged. We give the students the option of reading an
alternative book if they object but the grandparent wants the title off
the list.  I am now serving on a Reconsideration Committee and I want to
show up with lots of info to support keeping it on the class list with
the alternative option. I have some censorship info and some other but
I'm not really impressed with what I am finding. Any help would be
appreciated. Our meeting is later this month. Thanks,
