This "A grammar school librarian determines that this book

was reviewed and filed appropriately" is a pretty weak sauce
definition of "banned".

 I think that being seized and publicly burned
should meet a reasonable condition of "banned",
and that happened in the U.S. to Harry Potter.

 Textbooks for anarchism, terrorism, and

But it still got away from the priesthood .
