This is a bizarre article. It's a chronology of what appear to be neurotic teachers grossly overreacting to a law that says schools boards must provide a means for parents to object to content in instructional material that may (or may not) be pornographic in nature, or otherwise inappropriate. This is not "no books at all" in high school libraries.
>The bill itself does not outline penalties for educators, but school officials have nonetheless suggested that felony charges are possible under a preëxisting law prohibiting the distribution of pornography to minors.
Why would these school officials do this, intentionally scare their teachers? I can venture a guess... It's not in the law, which NY Mag actually links to this time, and what law is referenced with regard to pornography is an old one, where yes if you give porn to minors you can be charged with a felony.[1]
