これは禁書一覧である。
さまざまな聖典は、長い歴史の中で何度も発禁もしくは焚書処分を受けてきた。聖書やクルアーンを含むすべての聖典は検閲のため閲覧することができなかったり、一部の都市や国家で発禁処分を受けてきたことがある。
中世のヨーロッパでは、ローマカトリック教会が禁書目録という、ローマカトリックとは意見の異なる書物の目録を1966年まで作り続けた。
聖典を基にした本もまた発禁処分を受けることがあり、レフ・トルストイのThe Kingdom of God Is Within Youは、反体制をうたっているとしてロシアでは発禁処分になってしまった。
また、犯罪を誘発するような本も検閲に引っかかることがある。
アナーキストクックブックやHit Man: A Technical Manual for Independent Contractorsといった本の出版社はこれによって人気が落ちてしまった。
青年期のAngstや犯罪について書かれた本も、十代の自殺や犯罪の模倣を恐れたアメリカ図書館協会が有害図書と定める場合がある。
多くの出版物は子供がそのような本で堕落するであろうことを前提としていることに焦点を当てている。
このような恐れがあって、1954年にコミックス倫理規定委員会ができた。

^"The Online Books Page Presents BANNED BOOKS ONLINE", edited by John Mark Ockerbloom, University of Pennsylvania, undated. "In 2003, Cuba jailed 75 dissidents, many of whom were involved in the US-backed 'independent library' movement, which distributes literature to interested citizens outside the state-funded library system. In the court hearing that followed, many of these dissidents were then sentenced to jail for distributing 'subversive content', which was then ordered destroyed. Among the content was the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the US Constitution (both cited in the sentencing document for Pedro Argfuelles Moran and Pablo Pacheco Avila). According to Amnesty International reports, 69 prisoners of conscience remain in jail for non-violent political views and activities."
