DPLA - The Banned Book Club (case study)

- America is facing a book banning crisis. Conservative politicians are silencing Black, Brown and LGBTQIA+ voices by forcing librarians to take their books off the shelf. In 2023 alone, 3,059 books were banned - more than in any other year. The Digital Public Library of America holds that our democracy relies on our freedom to read. And believes books should always be available to everyone.
The DPLA created the most up to date database of all of the books banned in America. Then, geo-fenced the exact footprint of every library that banned the books - and made those books available for any person when they are within those very libraries. Sending a strong message to the book banners - that every time they try to take a book off the shelf, the DPLA will put it right back, virtually.
The Banned Book Club was launched in partnership with President Barack Obama, the most notable defender of our freedom of speech. The campaign reached people in the more than 20 states that have books banned with geo-located Instagram and Facebook ads, that alerted people just as they were near those offending libraries.
The Banned Book Club is a social first, digital solution designed for the future. Whenever a book is banned - it can simply be added to our dynamic database, making it available instantly in any library. Ensuring no book is ever banned again.
