阿拉巴马州将在2026年将LGBTQ+书籍转移到成人部分, 需要父母的许可才能获得青少年的阅读权. Alabama will move LGBTQ+ books to adult sections in 2026, requiring parental permission for youth access.

阿拉巴马公共图书馆服务委员会投票决定将有关变性身份和性别意识形态的书籍移到2026年生效的州200+公共图书馆的成人部分。 The Alabama Public Library Service Board voted to move books about transgender identities and gender ideology to adult sections in the state’s 200+ public libraries, effective in 2026. 这项规则得到董事会主席John Wahl的支持,旨在使家长能够控制儿童图书馆的存取,并与更广泛的国家限制男女同性恋、双性恋、变性者和变性者(LGBT) 内容的努力保持一致。 The rule, backed by Board Chairman John Wahl, aims to give parents control over children’s library access and aligns with broader state efforts to restrict LGBTQ+ content. 批评者称它为审查, 认为它抹去变性人的经历, 并破坏建立同情心的材料。 Critics call it censorship, arguing it erases transgender experiences and undermines empathy-building materials. 这项决定是在跨性别纪念日作出的,还要求父母允许青年查阅成人收藏品,并拒绝恢复图书馆对有争议的标题的资助。 The decision, made on Transgender Day of Remembrance, also requires parental permission for youth to access adult collections and rejected efforts to restore funding to a library over controversial titles.
