Marshall University does not ban books! The information is provided to let people know what has been banned/challenged elsewhere.

2017

Retained in the adult graphic book collection at the Toronto Public Library in Ontario, Canada, despite complaints of the book’s “sexual language and depictions of prostitution and violence.” The complainant wanted the library to institute a labeling system for graphic books so children can’t borrow them and victims of violence can avoid them.
