Today, both the Librarians for Fairness and MEMRI websites have reproduced (in a condensed version) an important report, written by Tunisian journalist Zyed Krichen. Entitled, "Ban...Ban," Krichen's overview sheds considerable light on the rampant censorship prevailing in the Islamic world. The Heretical Librarian blog also discusses the article.
The abuses Krichen has written about are ones that the American Library Association and IFLA (the International Federation of Library Associations) should be protesting against. But don't count on that. That wouldn't be politically correct. The chances of them taking action are zilch...zip...zero!!!
Please follow the links on my blog to Librarians for Fairness and the Heretical Librarian. And I urge you to regularly visit the always informative MEMRI website too!
