‘The teacher has to catalog every single book’Teacher says students can’t read any of her books until they’re screened for ‘age appropriateness’
"A Tennessee teacher on TikTok claims that her students can’t read any of the books in her classroom library until they’re screened for “age appropriateness,” which is a rather long process.
The teacher, Sydney (@sydneyrawls), recorded the viral video from her classroom on a Saturday. She says that like most teachers, she doesn’t like going to work on the weekends, but she felt obligated to do so because of her school’s book screening process. She does not say in the video what school she works at.
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee recently signed a law requiring school libraries to screen their materials for “age appropriateness,” according to Chalkbeat Tennessee. An additional bill could slap school librarians with criminal penalties over books that some might label obscene."
