Question about the local library pulling a book on LGBTQ history in Ohio

Last week at the Cincinnati branch I saw a staff member remove 'The 57 Bus' from the display table during a teen event, and when I asked the librarian she said it was 'under review' after one parent complained. Has anyone else noticed books disappearing from shelves without any public vote or discussion?

Had a similar thing happen at my local branch in Columbus last month with a graphic novel about civil rights. They said it was "temporarily relocated" but I never saw it come back. Makes me wonder how many times this goes on without anyone noticing.

@nina_clark respectfully I see it more as poor organization than intentional censorship.
