Books on LGBTQ issues, sex education, and gender identity have come under fire by some activists and members of the Gillette community who find them offensive and objectionable. The library says it includes materials to serve a broad set of views, even if some may find them controversial.
Campbell County Library Board meetings have been contentious since July when objections were made by several members of the public as to books that were available for check-out in the children's and young adults' section about sex, gender identity, and LGBTQ issues.
