Relates to development of school library collection policies
This bill requires school boards to create written policies for managing their school library collections. The new rules mandate that these policies outline clear steps for selecting, buying, reviewing, and removing library materials while considering educational goals and community needs. Additionally, the bill ensures that certified librarians play a key role in these decisions and requires districts to share their policies online and use models provided by state library systems.
