Truth stranger than fiction: Christian author can’t discuss book at Tenn. library

over meeting room policy forbidding use for ‘religious purposes’

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Alliance Defense Fund attorneys filed a lawsuit Thursday against the Putnam County Library on behalf of an author whom officials denied access to a public meeting room for a discussion about a Christian book she wrote.  Library officials told Ilene Vick that the meeting rooms could not be used for anything religious because library policy forbids it.

Case Name:  Vick v. Putnam County
