ACLD does not promulgate particular beliefs or views, nor is the selection of any given item equivalent to endorsement of the viewpoint of the author or producer. The collection is designed to serve the needs and interests of the community as a whole. Selections are made on the merits of the work in building balanced collections. ACLD recognizes that many materials are controversial but the selections cannot be made on the basis of anticipated approval or disapproval. Nor can the selection process be inhibited by the fact that children and young adults have access to the entire collection. Parents or guardians who wish to limit or restrict the use of library materials by their own children should personally oversee their selections. ACLD welcomes expression of opinion by patrons but does not attempt to please all patrons by eliminating items purchased after due deliberation under this policy. Whenever censorship is involved, no book and/or library material will be removed from ACLD except by the order of a court of competent jurisdiction, unless the reconsideration process has been completed and the recommendation is to remove the material. The library will reconsider any material upon written request. (See Patron Comment on Library Materials form in Appendix 2).
