Any books that had non-German ideals were banned in Germany.
Yes, definitely. The Nazi Party in Germany banned certain books of non-fiction because their content was contrary to the teachings of the Party. Karl Marx's books were among them as they are about Communism. I believe Communist Russia also banned books, for example, the Holy Bible. I think the Bible was banned in Nazi Germany also.
There are still many banned books even today. Some banned books have become unbanned.
Many books in Germany were burned in huge bonfires that consisted only of books. No wood. This happened because the Nazis thought that some books in Germany were against the Nazis and Hitler as well. So, they banned some books that were of "Lighter" criticisms, and burned those that were considered too against the Nazis ways and beliefs.
Most public libraries support banned books.
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.
Many books are becoming inappropriate as the years mature. This is why some books are being banned. (:
No where.
I wouldn't think there is one. All books, bar instruction manuals, are banned.
No, it is not true that the use of microwave ovens is banned in Germany.
Scientology has not been banned from Germany, as they have 5 Churches upcoming in the next year. Their help has been gladly appreciated by everyone in Germany.
