  • Racism and “Freedom of Speech”: Framing the Issues
    Al Kagan Editorial Racism and “Freedom of Speech”: Framing the Issues The production and distribution of the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom’s 1977 film was one of the most controversial and divisive issues in ALA history. The Speaker: A Film About Freedom was introduced at the 1977 ALA Annual Conference in Detroit, and was revived on June 30th, 2014, for a program in Las Vegas titled, “Speaking about ‘The Speaker.’” ALA Council’s Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) developed the program, which was cosponsored by the Freedom to Read Foundation (FTRF), the Library History Round Table and the ALA Black Caucus (BCALA). 4 Some background is necessary for context. This professionally made 42- minute color film was sponsored by the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom in 1977 and made in virtual secret without oversight by the ALA Executive Board or even most of the Intellectual Freedom Committee members. In fact, requests for information about the film, for copies of the script from members of these two bodies were repeatedly rebuffed. Judith Krug (now deceased), Director of the Office for Intellectual Freedom, was in charge with coordination from a two- member IFC subcommittee and ALA Executive Director Robert Wedgeworth. The film was made by a New York production company, and was envisioned by Krug as an exploration of the First Amendment in contemporary society. The film’s plot is a fictionalized account of real events. A high school invites a famous scientist (based on physicist and Nobel prizewinner William Shockley) to speak on his research claiming that black people are genetically Al Kagan is Professor of Library Administration and African Studies Bibliographer Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

  • Collection Development Policy Revisions
    SAN MARCOS PUBLIC LIBRARY COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT POLICY The San Marcos Public Library collection development policy has been developed by the library board and staff for the purpose of providing a framework to guide the development of the library's collection. This policy is to be considered the official position of the library. A. Purpose of the Public Library The mission of the San Marcos Public Library is to serve as a source of information, education, recreation, and cultural enrichment by providing the community with free and convenient access to books, periodicals, audiovisual materials, information services, and educational programs. B. Priorities for Collection Development Because we have limited resources with which to work, we have chosen to emphasize the following priorities with regard to development of the library collection: 1) to develop a well-rounded collection of current, high-demand, high-interest materials in a variety of formats for persons of all ages; 2) to make available timely, accurate, and useful information through our reference services department; 3) to encourage children to develop an interest in reading and learning by providing them with an outstanding collection of library materials and by promoting use of the collection through programs and services aimed at children, parents, and teachers; 4) to encourage lifelong learning by providing independent adult learners with resources to assist them in achieving their educational goals; 5) to take a leadership role in collecting, preserving, and disseminating information of both current and historical interest on the San Marcos/Hays County area. Because of the availability of other outstanding Texana, genealogy, medical, law, and research libraries in the Austin-San Antonio area, the San Marcos Public Library will not endeavor to develop in-depth, research-oriented collections with the exception of our local history collection.

  • Library Bill of Rights
    1 Collection Development Policy APPENDIX 3A LIBRARY BILL OF RIGHTS Library Bill of Rights The American Library Association affirms that all libraries are forums for information and ideas, and that the following basic policies should guide their services. 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. 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. III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment. IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas. V. A person’s right to use a library should not be denied or abridged because of origin, age, background, or views. VI. Libraries which make exhibit spaces and meeting rooms available to the public they serve should make such facilities available on an equitable basis, regardless of the beliefs or affiliations of individuals or groups requesting their use. Adopted June 19, 1939, by the ALA Council; amended October 14, 1944; June 18, 1948; February 2, 1961; June 27, 1967; January 23, 1980; inclusion of “age” reaffirmed January 23, 1996. Approved by the Board of Trustees 2.2018 Interpretations of the Library Bill of Rights Although the Articles of the Library Bill of Rights are unambiguous statements of basic principles that should govern the service of all libraries, questions do arise concerning application of these principles to specific library practices.

  • ALA CD 19.4 Intellectual Freedom Committee Action Item
    2020-2021 ALA CD#19.4 2021 ALA Annual Virtual Conference ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee Report to Council 2021 ALA Annual Conference Tuesday, June 29, 2021 The ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) is pleased to present this update of its activities. INFORMATION IFC Privacy Subcommittee The IFC Privacy Subcommittee is reviewing and reorganizing its website, making it easier for visitors to navigate its many resources. The website also includes the Voices for Privacy Blog. Since the 2021 Midwinter Meeting, the blog has published book reviews, perspectives from an electronic resources librarian, updates about California privacy laws, information on the right to be forgotten, and possible solutions to privacy scenarios. The Voices for Privacy Blog also published an overview of the “Resolution on the Misuse of Behavioral Data Surveillance in Libraries” and the discussion that took place at the ALA Council session at the 2021 Midwinter Meeting, as well as a two-part series on the concept of “information fiduciaries” that is referenced in the resolution. The Institute of Museum and Library Services, in partnership with the American Library Association, has sponsored the creation of Privacy Field Guides. These practical how-to guides for making concrete privacy changes within libraries are now being tested by selected participants in academic, public, and school libraries. Among the grant objectives is the goal to help librarians become privacy advocates, giving them clear guidelines and discussion points for engaging with library leaders, vendors, boards, local government, and other stakeholders about privacy-related topics. At the 2021 ALA Annual Conference, leaders of the project, IFC Privacy Subcommittee Chair Erin Berman and Affiliate Researcher at Data & Society Bonnie Tijerina will host the on-demand session “Privacy Field Guides: Take Action on Privacy in Your Library.” The News You Can Use program will outline how library workers can use these guides, ask questions in a judgement free zone, and leave empowered to make privacy changes.

  • Freedom to Read Foundation REPORT to COUNCIL 2019 Annual Conference — Washington, D.C
    2018–2019 ALA CD#22.1 2019 ALA Annual Conference Freedom to Read Foundation REPORT TO COUNCIL 2019 Annual Conference — Washington, D.C. As President of the Freedom to Read Foundation, it is my privilege to report on the Foundation’s activities since the 2019 Midwinter Meeting: 50th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION Fifty years ago, the Freedom to Read Foundation was founded by members of the American Library Association who wanted to defend the First Amendment and help librarians who faced loss of employment and worse as a consequence of their support for intellectual freedom. Under the leadership of Judith Krug, FTRF’s founding executive director, FTRF’s Board of Trustees embarked on an ambitious plan to create the legal precedent necessary to support the First Amendment principles outlined in the Library Bill of Rights. Through a program of grants-in-aid, amicus curiae briefs, legal assistance and legal representation, FTRF helped to establish the legal foundation for the right to read and receive information in libraries in the United States. In doing so, FTRF secured the right of libraries and library workers to provide any book and any resource to their library users, without limit and without discrimination. Since its founding in 1969, the Freedom to Read Foundation has initiated or joined over 150 different cases in defense of First Amendment freedoms. The issue at hand has varied from book censorship, to the constitutionality of federal and state obscenity statutes and harmful-to-minors laws, the rights of journalists to collect and disseminate the news, and the right of publishers to publish the books that challenge the status quo and change our understanding of the world.
