400 staff hours have been burned to remove 1,000 books so far from a Hamilton Co. library's teen section in the "Satanic Panic of '23."
The book removers are only 10% done with the book removals.
Keep billing those hours! There's still 90% more books to potentially ban!
How many books could have been bought with the money being paid to play culture war games that continue to erode our democracy.
