Dr. Seuss

For the safekeeping of our copies of the six Dr. Seuss books that have gone Out of Print today - and become highly collectible/theft-prone, the books listed below are now available for In-library Use Only. Hopefully, the need for this protection will be temporary. Seuss published forty-eight books total. Access to other titles is unrestricted. Parental guidance recommended, as always.

*NOTE: To review these items away from the library desk, staff will require a valid library card, photo ID, or credit card.

The Jefferson County Library supports the American Library Association’s Library Bill of Rights:

I. Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation.

II. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval.

III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.

IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas.
