Author John Green criticized an Indiana library system after it pulled his novel The Fault in Our Stars from shelves in its Young Adult section. Green spoke out against the Hamilton East Public Library Board of Trustees' decision to move the book, along with hundreds of other books, to a different section of its libraries in Fisher, Indiana and Noblesville, Indiana. The new policy targets books that are considered not "age-appropriate." "The Fault in Our Stars was removed from the YA section in the suburbs of Indianapolis and is now considered a 'book for adults.' This is ludicrous. It is about teenagers and I wrote it for teenagers. Teenagers are not harmed by reading TFIOS. This is such an embarrassment to the city of @FishersIN," Green wrote. He continued: "I only have a small voice in these decisions, of course, but you won’t catch me alive or dead in Fishers, Indiana until these ridiculous policies are revoked." Green’s book was relocated from the teen to the general section of the library "based on criteria included in the Board-approved Hamilton East Public Library Collection Development Policy," Hamilton East Public Library said in a statement. "This policy also includes a process for patrons to object to the placement of any item in the collection." Green’s book is the story of a teenage cancer patient who meets and falls in love with a teen from her cancer support group. The 2012 book was later adapted into a movie starring Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort. It has sold more than 23 million copies worldwide.
