This tracker currently identifies 59 distinct titles that have been banned or challenged within the School District of Palm Beach County. That figure places the district among the more active examples of book-removal activity in Florida, though it is one of many districts across the state where such actions have occurred in recent years. Much of this activity follows Florida House Bill 1467 (2022), which established new requirements for the review and approval of school library and classroom materials and prompted districts statewide to reassess their collections. Coverage of specific removals in this district from local or national news outlets was not available at the time of writing.
