Book Check Toolkit

Learn the steps to identify offensive books in your local district and take appropriate action to effectively challenge those books and request their removal using the Book Check Toolkit.

DISCLAIMER: Please note that the book lists for each school or school district have been constructed from information available at the time of publication on this website. To the best of our ability, CRI includes accurate, up-to-date reporting, however, it is possible that a specific title that appears on the website may be removed from a school library without our knowledge. The CRI team is constantly updating and revising our book lists as events warrant, but this requires ongoing, extensive research, and therefore, updates cannot be made in real time.

If you have information that a listed title has been challenged and removed from a specific school site OR if you are aware of a book containing obscene or vulgar content that is available in your school library, but it is not on our list, please contact CRI via the “Contact” button, and we will update our records accordingly.
