Library Materials Selection and Weeding


The mission of the Fresno County Public Library is to enrich lives and build community with a vision to be recognized as a premier resource for educational support, self-directed learning and recreation. To this end, the Library serves as a resource for the individual to examine issues freely and make his/her own decisions. Therefore, the collection must contain the various positions expressed on important, complicated, or controversial questions, including unpopular and unorthodox positions.

Listed below are the Library's complete policies and standards for materials selection and weeding.
