Removed from school shelves. The title is very unclear in that it's for schools.

  They are not removed from school shelves. This is not even a proposal for them to be removed from school shelves. The title is misleading. Please see my other comment above. Some State Rep has inquired about these, so is true that it's plausible that some of the books in the list may be targeted in the future, but that hasn't happened yet.

    > some of the books in the list may be targeted in the future, but that hasn't happened yet. It's quite literally a list of targeted books.

      Not in the sense that they are being removed from the school libraries, but that might happen in the future. There are other instances of books being removed from libraries, or removed from the required reading lists, but this isn't one of them. Link to the inquiry: https://static.texastribune.org/media/files/965725d7f01b8a25ca44b6fde2f5519b/krauseletter.pdf https://static.texastribune.org/media/files/965725d7f01b8a25... EDIT: I learned of one instance of books already being "temporarily" removed by a school board [1] triggered by this inquiry.
