Huntington Beach City Council members are slated to discuss prohibiting book bans at their local library amid concerns over what books will be available to check out.
The concerns come in the final days of voters casting their ballots for Measures A and B, which if approved would dismantle the library’s restricted section and proposals for a book review committee, along with preventing the city from outsourcing the library’s operations.
The last day to vote is June 10, and in person voting centers open on Saturday.
City council members have argued that there are a number of sexually explicit books available to children at the public library, encouraging voters to vote no on both A and B to allow their proposals to move forward.
