Llano County Keeps Libraries Open Despite Book Ban Controversy.

Llano County officials have decided not to close any of the three branches associated with the county library system, alleviating the immediate threat. The decision comes two weeks after a federal judge ordered county officials to return to the library system books they’d removed. Seven library patrons sued the county judge, commissioners court, library board members and library system last year, arguing that their First Amendment rights to access and receive ideas had been infringed when officials removed certain books based on their content.
