I guess it was OK for it to be there before, but now that some student may want to read it they decide it isn't appropriate.
Thats a pretty simplistic argument.

They hadn't read or researched the book or author before they bought their copies of it.

Which is understandible since they don't have the resources to pre-screen every book.

And it is their right to not have the book available, its not like they're demanding that the book be pulled from the shelves of chapters and the public library.
