Best Answer

Do you mean from what places are they banned, e.g. schools, particular countries; or do you mean which particular institutions ban books? If it is the former, an example is Salaman Rushdie, whose book "Satanic Verses" was banned in Iran by the Ayatotollah Khomeini. If it is the latter, various religious groups and also various political parties e.g the Nazis.
