The book they mention is “Sold” which has a 9th grade reading level and is intended for people 13+ according to McCormick. So because they didn’t move books like that from the Youth section to the adult section, they are defunding them.
Let’s get this straight, what does that do? If you move their reading level to the adult sections then they will look for books there… Meaning they will come in contact with books intended for even older audiences. I don’t get it.
Oh I don’t think they should move them, but that was what they claimed was their reasoning on the article. They demanded a list of books were moved to the adult section. Which Sold apparently is about a young girl being kidnapped and sold in India, so I can understand why there might be a parent out there that may think it isn’t for their child, and other clearly would think that’s when they should read it. To me it just means maybe the guardians should be involved in telling their kids why or why not they should check out a book.

13 year olds are not adults, so why would the book be in an adult section anyway?
Of course, all of this is an obvious smokescreen for right wingers lashing out at anything they deem as intolerable.
There will never be a union between the educated and tolerant, and people who align themselves with right-wing authoritarian rhetoric.
