For the tagging competency I chose the book The Limits of Tolerance by Ann Curry.
This book is a valuable resource in helping library personnel better understand current debates on intellectual property rights and freedom of information. It contains the results of a survey conducted by the author about librarians' attitudes towards material selection. The author analyzes different factors, such as political pressures and personal beliefs, that play into librarians' decisions about censorship. She also includes helpful tips for managing complaints from persons and organizations offended by the inclusion or exclusion of materials from a library collection.
Following are the tags for this book from librarything.com:
interfuture (1), lefty (1), library (1)
To this list I would add the tags:
intellectual freedom, censorship, librarianship, material selection, librarians
