This week is Freedom to Read week at Queen’s University. It’s a library-sponsored event that invites local literature lovers to deliver public readings, with an emphasis on works that have been challenged or banned. Library communications manager Jennifer Smith organized the event. Readers have been invited to select readings of their choice and present them in the spirit of celebrating intellectual freedom, she said.
