This story has been going on for a while, but CNN just published an update on July 22.

Basically, a group of people have gotten together and decided that books in the teen area that depict sex and homosexuality should be removed from the collection or put in a place where teens have to get parent permission to check out the books.
What do you guys think? Have you read any books that you feel are "inappropriate"? Do you feel the access to books for teenagers should be limited? Are books in the teen collection too racy? Are teens really influenced by these types of books? Or should teens have access to all materials? Share your thoughts here!
