Reconsideration of Library Materials
Any resident of the Faulkner/Van Buren Regional Library service area who wishes to object to an item in the library's collection must complete and sign a Request for Reconsideration of Library Materials form. All complaints will be forwarded to the Director, who will appoint a committee to evaluate the item in question. Committee recommendations will be sent to the Director, who will make the final decision and contact the complainant as to the outcome (assuming contact information has been provided on the Request form). Appeal of the Director's decision may be made to the Board of Trustees.
An appeal must be made in writing to the President of the Board of Trustees within seven days of receiving the Director’s decision. The Board will appoint a committee to review the item(s) in question, recommendations of the staff review committee, and the Director’s reply to the complainant.
All documentation of the complaint will be retained in the Director's Office for a period of five years.
