2 Overview of Today Collection development philosophy, policies, & procedures with Carrie Banned & challenged books with Heidi Trends and hot topics in publishing with Bonnie New, hot titles & interesting items in our collections with all of us!
3 Library Bill of Rights I. Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation.
4 Library Bill of Rights II. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval.
5 CBCPL Selection Policy Defines the purpose of the collection Sets out the scope Identifies selection criteria Reconsideration process Deselection of materials
6 Selection Criteria Present collection composition Collection Development objectives Significance of subject Diversity of viewpoint
7 Selection Criteria Effective expression Demand/Interest Timeliness Audience Physical Condition
8 Weeding Criteria same as for selection Important to keep collection fresh Weed worn, out of date materials Materials no long of interest
9 Who buys the books?
10 Tools
11 Library Bill of Rights III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.
12 Freedom to Read Statement I. It is in the public interest for publishers and librarians to make available the widest diversity of views and expressions, including those that are unorthodox, unpopular, or considered dangerous by the majority.
13 Freedom to Read Statement II. Publishers, librarians, and booksellers do not need to endorse every idea or presentation they make available. It would conflict with the public interest for them to establish their own political, moral, or aesthetic views as a standard for determining what should be published or circulated.
