Not everyone has the time or the inclination to read all the books on the New York Times bestseller list. But even those who have both may not be able to - if they're trying to find their favorite title at their local public library.

            Fifty Shades of Grey, the first installment of an erotic, sado-masochistic trilogy by British author E.L. James (Erika Leonard, a wife and mother of two), contains sexually explicit descriptions of the relationship between the young, innocent heroine, Anastasia Steele, and Christian Grey, a 27-year-old rich businessman. The book, which has sold more than three million copies, is sitting atop every major bestseller list in the country. However, it is no longer sitting on the shelves in the Brevard County Public Library system.
