About Volusia County Schools

Books in Schools

This tracker currently lists 195 distinct titles that have been banned or challenged in Volusia County Schools, a total that places it among the more active districts in Florida for book removal activity. Much of this activity follows from Florida House Bill 1467 (2022), which expanded requirements for school library materials to be reviewed for age-appropriateness and gave parents and community members a formal process to object to specific titles. Coverage of the district's book removals has appeared in local media, including reporting by FOX 35 Orlando (report). As with other districts represented in this tracker, the list reflects titles that have been formally challenged, restricted, or removed, and is subject to change as review processes continue.
