If you think the books you read aren't banned . . . you're wrong. Censors have been trying to ban books with unortodox or unpopular viewpoints since at least 387 B.C. Not only have censors tried to ban "dirty books," but classic authors like William Shakespeare and Mark Twain have come under attack, as have contemporary writers such as Annie Dillard and Alice Walker. Even books like dictionaries, travel guides and the Bible have been banned. If every book that anyone found objectionable were banned, there would be no books available. At The Booksmith, we think books are a great way to learn about many issues - things we sometimes have a hard time talking about. Not everyone will agree on everything, but if we read, reason, and think, books will help us to a better future. Books are sometimes banned because of a single word or because the cover suggests a subject matter offensive to someone, even if that person has not read the book. (Some do judge a book by its cover.) Censors have also targetted all works by an author after reading only one. Every year, hundreds of books are challenged and banned in libraries and schools all over the world. In the United States, censorship incidents have been documented in every state. Reading is not just a privilege in this country, it's a right. Let's keep it that way.

"The grants will help CDC and its partners conduct research that can directly improve community health and reduce the need for medical care." The grants cover a range of subjects, including prevention of sexually transmitted diseases, asthma, genetics and home, workplace and recreational injuries. (See complete list attached.) Activities include centers of excellence in prevention research, research projects to inform public policy, and research investigator training and development. The average grant is approximately $250,000. Most projects are funded for three years.

A diverse student enrollment of 27,000 students in 51 schools and an equal number of adult education students, give the district its character and strength. Richland School District One has embarked on a significant, aggressive plan to acquire, support and use technology throughout schools and the community. The establishment of the Information Resource Management Department in 1995, combining and expanding the former Educational Technology, Media Services, and Electronic Repair Units, signaled the beginning of the district's focus on the integration of technology in the instructional arena. The successful 184 million-dollar bond referendum in 1996 enabled the district to support new school construction, school renovation and renewal and the establishment and expansion of the district wide technology infrastructure. A three year, four-pronged infrastructure plan, funded by the bond at 9.23 million dollars, was initiated in the spring of 1997 that: created the wide area network with Internet access at all locations expanded all school LANs to all classrooms replaced file servers in every school placed two additional computers in every classroom and 15 computers in every media center.
