Index Librorum Liberorum Challenge


September 1, 2007 - August 31, 2008

Autumn is fast approaching, and you know what that means, right? MORE CHALLENGES!

Imani over at The Books Of My Numberless Dreams is hosting TWO (yes, TWO) new challenges. The first is Librorum Prohibitorum Liberatorum (say that fast three times).It looks to be a very creative banned books challenge that spans the world. Here's what Imani says:

"For a year, working with the Index Librorum Prohibitorum (List of Prohibited Books) officially catalogued and promulgated by the Roman Catholic Church under the leadership of Pope Paul IV in 1559, participants are encouraged to select books or the oeuvre of authors to read, mull over and share with like-minded individuals at this site. The only requirement is that each participant chooses authors from at least three different countries. The Beacon for Freedom of Expression has a database that allows sorting by country."

She's taking sign ups now - looks to be fun and informative and maybe a little bit heathen *big grin*!
