    A high school English teacher from Oklahoma says she was placed on leave after providing her students with information about a program that grants access to the Brooklyn Public Library’s digital collection at no charge.
    When Summer Boismier's 10th graders arrived for their first day of school, they were greeted by red paper signs announcing the “books the state doesn’t want you to read,” along with a QR code for the Brooklyn Public Library sign-up page.
