My Library Has Changed the Title of Coulter's Book to "Offensive" (Update @# 51)

If you search the Loudoun County Public Library website for Ann's book, "!Adios, America!" you come up with NOTHING. No combination of those words will bring you to her book. Search by author brings you to her book, UNDER THE TITLE "OFFENSIVE"

Curious, yes?

Look at Gnome Chomsky or Michael Moore’s books and see what they’re called...

Yes, curious, and I hope you reported it to your county government. This is grossly unprofessional conduct by the library staff.

I would file a written complaint with the head librarian with a copy to the mayor noting that public funds are being used to purchase books that people want to read and that the person who entered a false title into the online card catalog must be fired.

Leftists fight the truth whenever it runs against their cult. They will fight this book.

the Constitution orders that the President shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed. Not changed. Not sold off to the bigger voter base.

I’m glad Ann has written this book. Maybe good people will wake up.

See if they have a copy of Fahrenheit 451.

I went to the site and did an online contact form asking why a PUBLIC LIBRARY changed the name of the book.

Just this second got off the phone with the local branch. She said “This needs to be corrected immediately.”

They should be called out on this hideous offense. I have no interest in her or her books any longer, but that is beside the point.

The interesting thing will be if it stands after someone brings it to the attention of someone in charge.

“This needs to be corrected immediately.”

....which you already knew. I would check back. By the way, I hope you said this was offensive.

Liberals are always changing stuff.
Sir Walter Scott wrote his famous novel “Rob Roy” in the early 1800s, of course that was not what he chose for his title. Later day liberal were offended by his title so they renamed the novel from “The Klansman” to “Roy Roy” to please their sensibilities. The content of the book didn’t change, just the title.

Concur.

Also, there is presumably a library board. They should know, as well. Libraries are public, but rely heavily on public support, and the supporters are usually businesses. They need to know they are subsidizing liberal nonsense.

Agatha Christie’s “Ten Little Indians” wasn’t the original name.

“I would file a written complaint with the head librarian”


Ditto !!!!

This is a form of book burning.
