The school district will maintain a school library in each building for use by employees and by students during the school day.
Materials for the centers will be acquired consistent with all applicable laws and board policy, "Instructional Materials Selection." Any challenges to library materials will be handled following the process for handling challenges to instructional and library materials as established in board policy.
It is the responsibility of the principal of the building in which the school library is located to oversee the use of materials in the library.
It is the responsibility of the superintendent to develop procedures for the selection and replacement of both library and instructional materials, for the acceptance of gifts, for the weeding of library and instructional materials.
