Today, @internetarchive filed our appeal.

Publishers coordinated by the AAP, have removed hundreds of thousands of books from controlled digital lending.

The publishers have taken more than 500 banned books from our lending library, such as 1984, The Color Purple, and Maus.This is a devastating loss for digital learners everywhere.

If this decision is left to stand, it will take away a library’s ability to lend books from its permanent collections to digital learners.
