Florida Teachers Sue Government Over School Library Controversy and Training

TL;DR Summary
The Florida teachers union and advocacy groups are suing the state education department over school library regulations, claiming that the new law about school library books goes further than the law intended, leading to censorship and book bans. The new law requires districts to catalog every book on their shelves and create a formal review process for complaints. Some parents have asked for certain books to be removed from schools because of the new law. Florida school districts have responded in a range of ways, including draping their classroom library bookshelves with sheets.
