In doing so, the Keene Memorial Library library serves as an community-based educational, informational, and civic resource for the citizens of the City of Fremont. Such displays need prior approval from the library director or their designee. 12.4.

Keene Memorial Library recognizes the pluralistic nature of this community and the varied backgrounds and needs of all citizens, regardless of race, age, creed, or political persuasion. In a democratic society, patrons should feel free to explore any and all ideas in order to decide which are meaningful to them. All materials in the collection may be used by anyone. Therefore, the library, within the limits of selection standards, chooses representative material espousing all points of view in all fields, including political, social, 5 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 and religious. The Keene Memorial Library believes that censorship is an individual matter and declares that while anyone is free to reject for oneself materials which do not meet with the individual’s approval, one cannot exercise this right of censorship to restrict the freedom of others. The Keene Memorial Library supports respects the right of each family to decide which items are appropriate for use by its children. Responsibility for a child’s use of the library materials lies with his or her parent or guardian. The Library Bill of Rights will be the foundation of the Collection Development Process. The Library Bill of Rights will be the foundation of the Collection Development process. 15.1. Selection Policy 15.1.1. General Criteria for selecting library materials include: (an item need not meet all of the criteria to be acceptable) * Public demand, interest or need which is pursued through careful consideration of the following: patron requests for purchase, use patterns for existing materials, purchase trends of similar materials from retailers, and any other source of community information indicating community interests. * Diversity which is pursued by attempting to meet the needs of all ages, backgrounds, and educational levels by providing as many subject fields as possible, and by providing alternative perspectives as well as popular materials. * Quality which is pursued by applying professional discretion and standards established by the Library profession and through the use of appropriate selection aids, including book reviews, best seller lists, award lists, etc. * Reflection of the community which is pursued by specifically considering materials that possess significance due to the locality of the author, illustrator, publisher, subject or setting. * Undue duplication of materials is avoided, either in the Llibrary itself, or within other institutions in the community. Esoteric or very technical works, and materials available elsewhere to special interest groups, are generally excluded from the collection. Materials may also be excluded if the existing collection already covers the field. The lLibrary’s 6 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 Interlibrary Loan service is available to supplement our local collection as needed * Materials with formats that do not conform with or lend themselves to Library use are usually excluded. It is the intent of the Keene Memorial Library to stock have materials available that presenting diverse viewpoints on all subjects, and to attempt to satisfy a wide variety of patrons with differences in tastes, interests, reading levels, and purposes. Selection of materials does not constitute or imply agreement with or approval of the content, viewpoint, implications, or presentation of the materials. Library materials will not be labeled, marked, or otherwise identified to show approval or disapproval of contents, and no cataloged item shall be sequestered, except for the express purpose of protecting it from injury or theft. 15.2. Selection of Materials 15.2.1. “Selection” refers to the process that determines which materials are added to the collection or retained in the collection. 15.2.2. The responsibility for selection is shared by the professional library staff, who are required to have post-secondary degrees in Library Science. The ultimate responsibility for the selection of materials rests with the Library Director, who is required to have a Master’s Degree in Library Science. The responsibility for selection is shared by the professional library staff. 15.2.3. The library will maintain access to a collection of up-to-date selection tools to aid staff in the decision-making process, such as reviewing services and catalogs of recommended purchases. Examples of these resources are: professional journals, collection development tools from vendors, and supporting electronic resources. 15.2.4. The library will always strive to balance general demand with those of special group interests, and to actively work to present both sides of controversial subject matter in a 7 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 balanced and fair manner. The addition of material to the library does not constitute or imply agreement with or approval of its content, but assures that a variety of differing points of view are represented. 15.2.5. Public demand is a valid factor in materials selection. However, we also consider the interests of the few patrons as well as the many. Patrons may request materials not found in the library collection. These requests will be considered for purchase and addition to the collection. Interlibrary loan services (see section 11) may be utilized to obtain requested materials if they are not purchased. 15.2.6. Library staff is not able to purchase materials through telephone solicitation or online retail vendors, nor will they accept preview boxes from vendors. All approved vendors must be willing to accept City purchase orders and payment terms. 15.3. Specific Selection Criteria 15.3.1. Materials selections are made on the basis of any one, several, or all of the following specific criteria: * A positive review in at least one standard Library review journal, including but not limited to Library Journal, Publisher’s Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, Booklist, School Library Journal, or Horn Book * Awarding of a significant literary honor, or other significant honor appropriate for the form of the work (Grammy, Pulitzer, Academy Award, etc.) * A high standard of quality in content, expression, and physical attributes * Contents that are timely, accurate, and representative of various viewpoints * Significant reputation of the author, editor, publisher, producer, or illustrator * Contemporary significance, potential usefulness, appeal or cultural value of the title * Reasonable cost with regard to budget restrictions * Appearance on a Best Seller list as a reputed indicator of 8 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 popular demand * Titles that appear on the ALA Most Challenged Books list for the previous two years shall be reviewed by the professional library staff prior to ordering for the collection 15.3.2. Formats collected include but are not limited to books, periodicals, newspapers, maps, audio and video recordings, graphic novels, and online databases. These formats may be collected in physical print or electronic form. New and/or emerging formats will be considered when appropriate. The general collection does not include items that will not withstand circulation. 15.4. Intended audiences for the collections include: * Juvenile area targets -- birth to 12 years old * Young Adult area targets -- ages 13 and upto 18 years old However, mMany factors affect what material is appropriate for an individual child, including but not limited to reading level, maturity, and personal beliefs. The Library staff cannot act in place of the parent or legal guardian in selecting what materials is appropriate for a particular child. Responsibility for children’s use of Llibrary materials, regardless of format, rests with their parent(s) or legal guardian(s). 15.5. Weeding Library materials are continuously assessed for their condition, accuracy, currency, and use within the context of the total Library Collection. Items may be withdrawn from the collection for any of these reasons. This continuous evaluation of materials is necessary to maintain a collection that is useful and relevant to the library's patrons, as well as maintaining a collection size that fits within the current area available for housing materials. 15.6. Challenges to Library Materials Individuals who are concerned about the appropriateness of library resources may make informal complaints in public and to library staff members. Patrons finding certain materials objectionable to the community may request that they be reconsidered by using the “Request for Reconsideration” form as described below. “Request for 9 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 Reconsideration” forms will be returned to the Library Director. The following steps will be used when an individual feels that further action is necessary to address concerns about a library resource. For the duration of this process, the material in question will remain in circulation in the library collection. 15.6.1. A concerned patron who is dissatisfied with earlier informal discussions will be offered a packet of materials that includes the library's mission statement, selection policy, reconsideration form, and the Library Bill of Rights. 15.6.2. Patrons are required to complete and submit a reconsideration form to the library director in order for material to be reviewed. 15.6.3. Patrons may only have one active reconsideration request at any given time. Active reconsideration requests include those undergoing an appeal. 15.6.2.15.6.4. Only one challenge per title will be allowed at any given time. 15.6.3.15.6.5. The director, with appropriate professional staff, will review the reconsideration form and the material in question, to consider whether its selection follows the criteria stated in the collection policy. 15.6.4.15.6.6. Within 15 business days, the director will make a decision and send a letter to the concerned person who requested the reconsideration, stating the reasons for the decision. 15.6.5.15.6.7. If the individual is not satisfied with the decision, a written appeal may be submitted within 10 business days of receipt of the decision to the Library Advisory Board. 15.6.6.15.6.8. If the Library Advisory Board plans to address the appeal at their board meeting, the individual will be notified of when and where the meeting will be held. 10 THIRD DRAFT Updates to Collection Development Policy and Display Policy- July 2023 15.6.7.
