悉尼韦弗利图书馆恢复上架《如何贩卖种族灭绝》一书

悉尼韦弗利图书馆在新南威尔士州图书馆的法律干预下，决定将批评以色列的书籍《如何贩卖种族灭绝》恢复上架1。该书此前因邦迪袭击事件幸存者的投诉而被下架，引发了关于言论自由的争议1。

公众对移除决定的反对促使了这一转变1。近2500人签署了要求恢复上架的请愿书，另有21人排队等待借阅该书1。新南威尔士州图书馆援引2026年修订的《图书法》和相关委员会指南，向图书馆说明了保留该书的法律依据1。

这一事件揭示了社区内对书籍审查问题的不同立场。澳大利亚犹太社区理事会（Ecaj）联合首席执行官亚历克斯·瑞夫钦曾表示支持移除该书1，而澳大利亚进步犹太委员会执行成员巴特·施坦曼则认为书籍不应被移除1。该书由普卢托出版社出版，作者为亚当·约翰逊1。

Waverley Library in Sydney's Bondi Junction has returned the book "How to Sell a Genocide" to its shelves following intervention by the New South Wales State Library, ending a controversy over intellectual freedom sparked by a complaint from a survivor of the Bondi attack that killed 15 people 1. The library had previously removed the work by author Adam Johnson, published by Pluto Press and critical of Israel, prompting public backlash 1.

Nearly 2,500 people signed a petition calling for the book's reinstatement, with 21 patrons waiting in queue to borrow it 1. The State Library cited the 2026 revised Library Act and library committee guidelines when intervening in the decision to restore the title 1. Opinion on the removal remained divided: Alex Ryvchin, co-chief executive of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, had previously supported removing the book, while Bart Shteinman, an executive member of the Australian Progressive Jewish Committee, stated the book should not have been taken off the shelves 1.
