If the school declines to put a book in the library, that's not a ban. If people outside the school with power over the school demand that books be removed, that's a ban.
replyThe groups demanding books be removed are often not even parents of children in the school. It external parties driving this stuff.
Removing a book from the library is not a ban any more than a publisher rejecting a manuscript is a ban.
replyDeclining to provide a book is not the same as prohibiting the possession, use, or distribution of a book.
As for “external parties”, schools in the US are public institutions.
If rather have folks that are trained in childhood education doing that job than randos.
