Removing books is so misguided, and whoever instigated this should not be running anything related to schools, let alone the library. Books reflect our history, and the school is there to teach the kids about values, why they are important, and how societies and time periods that espoused different values looked. Only this can reinforce our commitment to these values. Censoring history does the opposite. Books are not monuments that celebrate their content, they are historic records of societies, events, values and people.
