Workers at a Lexington, Kentucky public library were fired after it
was discovered that they had teamed up to keep a copy of Alan Moore's
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Black Dossier out of
circulation.

Don't think it'll happen here as I don't think NLB has LEG does it...

Contrast that with what's happening here in Singapore:

Comics with sexual content found at NUS Co-op

"Japanese comics laden with sexually explicit content were up for rent
at the Comics Corner located at the National University of Singapore’s
Co-op@Forum, situated on the premises of the school’s Faculty of Arts
and Social Sciences."

The outcome? The books were removed.

Boomz!
