« If I Lie -- Corrine Jackson | Main | New YA: June 15-21. »
From Jacket Copy:
When the book was challenged, it was removed from shelves and went before an internal committee for review. That committee advised the Greenville County Library to retain "Neonomicon" and return it to circulation. However, the head of the library system disagreed and decided to remove the novel from the library's collection.

According to the article it's Greenville, South Carolina, not Greenville, North Carolina. I would think the South Carolina town is slightly more conservative than the North Carolina one because it's the home of Bob Jones University.
