Miles of Aisles


Today I found myself dancing down the library aisles rocking out to my iPod while searching for literature on the history of books. I spent a few hours wandering the shelves searching for the perfect resources. It was quite the adventure!

Banned

The world knows of China's censorship of media. They censor all types of mediums including television, print media, radio, film, theater, text messaging, instant messaging, video games, literature and the Internet. A wide variety of subject matter is censored by the government: politics, cultural, moral, religious, & economic. 

Anything that can essentially tarnish the government's reputation with topics ranging from independence of the people to corruption and anarchism is censored. Pornography and some religious texts, publications, and materials are also banned.
