What are they going to do next - remove the entry for Darwin or Evolution?
Yes.... They already do that in many places. Also, there was an article several months back about how the British movie Creation (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0974014/) with Paul Bettany as Darwin wouldn't be released in the U.S. because they could not find a distributor. Apparently they did find a distributor, but it is on extremely limited release and is currently showing in only five cities in the U.S. Evolution is still a hugely controversial thing over here. :/
On the other hand, there were a number of books published last year, since it was the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and 150th of the publication of Origin of the Species. And at least one of them did receive book award nods.
