Removing a book from the library is not a ban any more than a publisher rejecting a manuscript is a ban.

Declining to provide a book is not the same as prohibiting the possession, use, or distribution of a book.

As for “external parties”, schools in the US are public institutions.

If rather have folks that are trained in childhood education doing that job than randos.
