The authority responsible for banning books in local libraries and schools typically lies with school boards, library boards, or local government officials. Decisions to restrict access to specific books often arise from challenges or complaints submitted by parents, educators, or community members. These governing bodies may create policies that guide the review process and determine whether a book should be removed or restricted. Ultimately, the process can vary significantly depending on local laws and community standards.
