(Valley City, ND) -- In over a hundred years, the Barnes County Public Library has never hosted a meeting like the one they did Thursday night.

Dozens of residents gathered at VCSU to discuss the controversial "Let's Talk About It" book that sits on a shelf in the public library.

Concerned citizens say the content of the graphic novel is, well, too graphic, and should be removed.

After opinions were heard, many of them strong, the public library's board now has two weeks to decide whether or not they'll take the book off the shelf.
