A North Barrington letter to the editor: The Daily Herald's June 16 editorial 'Illinois takes swipe at censorship in libraries' makes an excellent point: too often attempts to prohibit libraries from carrying certain books lead to a small minority controlling library content.

The Daily Herald's June 16 editorial"Illinois takes swipe at censorship in libraries" makes an excellent point: too often attempts to prohibit libraries from carrying certain books lead to a small minority controlling library content.

Our state representative opposed the law protecting libraries, saying that it would erode local control. The truth is that without the new law, small extremist minorities can take control of our libraries and ruin their core purpose of providing all residents with access to a variety of viewpoints. I agree with the Daily Herald that anyone who cares about the First Amendment should applaud the new law.
