Policy: 8505

The Board of Trustees of the College, as the legally responsible policy-making body for the College, endorses the Library Bill of Rights adopted by the American Library Association on June 18, 1948 and amended on January 29, 2019 by the ALA Council, as the basis for selection and use of Library materials. It is the responsibility of the Director of Library Services to implement this policy in the selection of books, periodicals, and nonprint materials needed to support the College curriculum, demonstrate cultural and intellectual enrichment, and broaden horizons of all people of the community the Library serves.

The President will have administrative procedures developed.
