The board of the Jackson-George Regional Library System which has been deliberating the removal of the book “Happy Endings: The Tales of a Meaty-Breasted Zilch” has come to a decision. The board voted to keep the book on library shelves saying that “If we order a book, we feel like it should be made available to the public.” The decision to keep the volume was not unanimous. The hold out was David Ogborn who went on the record equating the decision to running an adult bookstore.

While this book will be making it’s  way back on to the stacks this incident has brought about a policy decision which may block others. Until now the library ordered every book on the New York Times bestseller list of which this was one. It will now be up to individual libraries to decide which books from the list are appropriate for their patrons.
