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.

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

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.

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.

Strangely, Knox County (TN) Library has the book listed the same way.

Here are the links. I get the same results.

Loudon Library Home
http://library.loudoun.gov/

Collections/Catalog
http://library.loudoun.gov/Collections

Search under Title for "Adios America"
http://catalog.lcpl.lib.va.us/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=&menu=search&aspect=basic_search&npp=20&ipp=20&profile=adm&ri=&aspect=basic_search&index=.TW&term=Adios+America&I1.x=21&I1.y=22

Search under Author for Coulter
http://catalog.lcpl.lib.va.us/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=143NA47601522.38549&profile=adm&uri=link=3100025~!373826~!3100001~!3100002&aspect=subtab69&menu=search&ri=1&source=~!horizon_public&term=Coulter%2C+Ann+H.&index=PAUTHOR

Contact the Library:
http://library.loudoun.gov/About/Contact-Us

Loudon Co. Library Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/LoudounCountyPublicLibrary?fref=ts

Search by Title for Adios America. The catalog finds other titles with "adios" but not Coulter's "Adios America."


Search by Author for Coulter, and selection of Ann H. The image of the book cover confirms that this is the book, even though the title is shown as "offensive."

My library categorized Clarence Thomas’ autobiography in the African American section. I was pretty offended by that.

Ok my library has it wrong too, and our system is in a deep red county so I’ll ask the librarian if they can switch it to the right name like Amazon has.

At least they have the book, 20 years ago we were having to fight to get the libraries to buy best selling conservative books.

Your link says they have 0 copies, and when you click on the “where is it?” button, it takes you to fiction?
