A Keller ISD parent says she's upset with the district's book policy and says it's causing elementary school libraries to remove a certain Harry Potter book and others.

She said she learned through educators in the district that books like Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 were being removed from elementary libraries based on their age recommendation.

NBC 5 Reached out to Keller ISD to confirm this. A spokesperson said they were working on tracking down answers. "I reached out to the district and said I have a child who is an advanced reader and I want him to be able to check out Harry Potter number seven if he gets through one through six. And she said, 'Well, the way that it's working is you still can, you just have to request it be shipped from another library," explained Hawes."What's frustrating about that is it takes away the magic of the library.
