In celebration of Banned Books Week (October 5 – 11, 2025), NEHS, Sigma Tau Delta, and the ELA Honor Society are teaming up to host the tenth annual Banned Books Week social media contest for student members and Chapter Advisors. To participate you must tag us in a post on any of the following social media accounts:
- ELA Facebook
- English Honor Societies Instagram (@EnglishMatters)
What to do in Your Post:
Books are banned for a variety of reasons. Take your own original photo of your favorite banned book and share with us (on one social media platform) one of the reasons it has been contested. If you wish to post on a second platform, please choose a second banned book to post about.
The contest will run October 5 – 11, 2025. Everyone who participates during this time frame will be entered in a drawing to win one of three $25 Bookshop.org gift cards. A $50 Bookshop.org gift card will also be awarded for the best overall post. Select submissions will be shared across our social media platforms.
