separate policy or be included in this policy.

Discussion continued on Collection Maintenance and how the policy should clearly state
that maintenance of the collection is an ongoing process, which suits the needs of its

etc.)
Discussion ensued regarding request for reconsideration form of library materials and
what that request form(s) should look like. After reviewing the steps in the process,
board member Kaufman suggested creating a buffer between some of the steps to help
lessen the burden on staff other than the director or designated person to have all of
the answers and to avoid incomplete patron complaints that are hurried and rushed.

7. Collection Maintenance
Collection maintenance is an ongoing process in which materials are regularly added or
removed to meet the evolving needs of Library patrons and our growing community. The
Library Director and staff evaluate items based on circulation, condition, space, budget, user
demand, and the significance of local history or classics. Discarding or weeding helps keep
the collection relevant and accessible. Staff use professional guidelines, including the CREW
manual, available through the Texas State Library and Archives Commission:

of the Library book sale, Library programs, or may be recycled or disposed of.
8. Requests for Reconsideration
The Library fully endorses a diversity of viewpoints, enabling citizens to make the informed
choices necessary in a democracy. The Library also selects a wide variety of Library
materials that satisfy the diverse interests of our community. The Library upholds the right
of the individual to secure these resources even though the content may be controversial,
unorthodox, or unacceptable to some. The Library’s varied collection is available to all;
it is not expected that all of the collection will appeal to everyone.
