The Pine-Richland School District sign welcomes visitors to Pine Richland Middle School on Aug. 30, 2024.

Pine-Richland School Board has become the latest local school system to join the conversation of library censorship and book bans, thanks to a new policy that was narrowly passed, and has engaged board and community members alike.

As the board nears primary election season, TribLive reporter James Engel and host Zac Gibson discuss the new policy and the potential election impact.
