I’ve always believed that science fiction is the single best type of writing to teach us about our own lives and society.
So I’m absolutely fine when I think about sci-fi books with “inappropriate” content being put into the hands of kids even though the author of this article seems to think librarians put some books in the kid’s section out of obliviousness (which may be true) but without also acknowledging that most librarians also have a fairly open interpretation of “what’s appropriate for readers” and *don’t* try to be gatekeepers.
