  How has 9/11 affected your library's collection
development? For instance at Palm Harbor Library we
did not receive a lot of our book orders around that
time because of the back-up in the postal system.
Publishers also did not get enough orders for items
this past year because of the fear of items going
through an anthrax contaminated post office.
Therefore the publishers did not print certain new
editions of books. Has there been any censorship of
materials because of 9/11?
