Collection Development Guideline
Reconsideration of Materials
The District recognizes the right of individuals and libraries to question the inclusion of materials in the District collection. The Library will give serious consideration to each patron’s opinion. Only requests from patrons in our service area shall be considered.Â
Once a decision has been made on an item, no future challenges will be accepted for the next two years unless the area(s) of concern are substantially different.
Decisions on SCs are based on careful review of the objection, material, and Library policies, including these guidelines, the Library Bill of Rights, and the American Library Association’s guidelines on intellectual freedom.
