Our staff has many duties to perform in order to serve all patrons in the best way possible. For this reason, the staff cannot monitor the whereabouts or behavior of our smallest patrons \u2013 your children. Staff cannot assume responsibility of your children\u2019s care when they are in the library. No public place, including the library, can guarantee the safety of children. A child could be approached by a stranger, become ill, wander outside, or become lost or injured. We are primarily concerned with your children\u2019s safety, and we believe that our policy helps ensure their well-being.<\/p><ul><li>We expect parents\/caregivers to be responsible for their children\u2019s behavior at the library. A caregiver must be at least 12 years of age.<\/li><li>We expect parents to understand and explain the library rules to their children. The rules and policies have been developed to safeguard the collection and ensure fairness for all library users.<\/li><li>We expect parents to see that overdue fines are promptly paid. Parents are financially responsible for any damages to library materials, equipment or property incurred by their children.<\/li><li>We expect parents to keep sick children at home and not bring them to the library, especially during children\u2019s programming when illness may easily be spread to other children.<\/li><li>We care about the safety of your child. If a child under the age of 8 is found unattended while the library is open, library staff will attempt to locate the parent\/caregiver in the library. If the parent\/caregiver cannot be found, law enforcement officials will be called, and the child will be placed in their care.<\/li><\/ul><p><em>Updated and Approved May 16, 2024<\/em><\/p><p>Staff members have many duties and can neither supervise children nor act as a substitute for daycare. Children through age 8 must have a parent or caregiver in the immediate vicinity unless they are participating in a library program. Parents or caregivers who do not attend the program with the child should remain in the building. Parents are still responsible for the actions of their children. Children 8-12 may use the library unattended for an amount of time appropriate to their age and maturity. It is important for staff to take note of disruptions caused by children who apparently are unaccompanied. Children using inappropriate behavior will be informed of the rules. If inappropriate behavior continues, the child and parent\/caregiver shall be asked to leave the library. If a child in this age group is unaccompanied by an adult or appropriate-aged caregiver, the staff will follow the directions below for children found on Library premises without a parent or caregiver. All children should have the telephone number of someone who can assist them in an emergency. The library staff in no way assumes responsibility for the care of any age child. If a child is found without a parent or caregiver, the staff will:<\/p><ol><li>Attempt to comfort the child, if necessary.<\/li><li>Locate the parent or caregiver in the library and explain the Child Safety Policy.<\/li><li>Make every effort to contact the parent or caregiver who is not in the library to come and pick up the child. Staff will express the library\u2019s concern for the child\u2019s safety and explain the Child Safety Policy.<\/li><li>Call law enforcement officials to pick up the child if the parent or caregiver cannot be located within 30 minutes. Staff will notify the director that law enforcement officials have been called.<\/li><li>Encourage an unattended child to contact the parent or guardian if it is within 15 minutes of closing time. If a parent or caregiver cannot be reached or does not arrive within 15 minutes of closing, Library staff will call law enforcement to pick up child. Staff will notify the director that police have been called.<\/li><li>Remain with the child until the parent or caregiver or police arrive.

Objectives<\/h3><p>The purpose of the Kewaunee Public Library is to provide all individuals in the community with carefully selected books and other materials to aid the individual in the pursuit of education, information, research, pleasure, and the creative use of leisure time.<\/p><p>Because of the volume of publishing, as well as the limitations of budget and space, the library must have a selection policy with which to meet community interests and needs.<\/p><p>The materials selection\/collection development policy is used by the library staff in the selection of materials and also serves to acquaint the general public with the principles of selection.<\/p><p>The Library Bill of Rights and The Freedom to Read Statement have been endorsed by the Kewaunee Public Library Board of Trustees and are integral parts of the policy.<\/p><p>The materials selection\/collection development policy, like all other policies, will be reviewed and\/or revised as the need arises.<\/p><h3>B. Responsibility for Selection<\/h3><p>The ultimate responsibility for selection of library materials rests with the library director who operates within the framework of the policies determined by the Kewaunee Public Library Board of Trustees. This responsibility may be shared with other members of the library staff; however, because the director must be available to answer to the library board and the general public for actual selections made, the director has the authority to reject or select any item contrary to the recommendations of the staff.<\/p><h3>C. Criteria for Selection<\/h3><ol><li>The main points considered in the selection of materials are:<ol><li style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><ol><li style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">individual merit of each item<\/li><li style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">popular appeal\/demand<\/li><li style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">suitability of material for the clientele<\/li><li style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">existing library holdings<\/li><li style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">budget<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol><\/li><li>Reviews are a major source of information about new materials. The primary source(s) of reviews is (are) Library Journal, Booklist, Publishers Weekly and various online sources.<\/li><li>The lack of a review or an unfavorable review shall not be the sole reason for rejecting a title which is in demand. Consideration is, therefore, given to requests from library patrons and books discussed on public media. Materials are judged on the basis of the work as a whole, not on a part taken out of context.<\/li><\/ol><h3>D. Interlibrary Loan<\/h3><p>Because of limited budget and space, the library cannot provide all materials that are requested. Therefore, interlibrary loan is used to obtain from other libraries those materials that are beyond the scope of this library's collection.<\/p><p>In return for utilizing interlibrary loan to satisfy the needs of our patrons, the Kewaunee Public Library agrees to lend its materials to other libraries through the same interlibrary loan network, and to make an effort to have its current holdings listed in a tool that is accessible by other libraries throughout the state.<\/p><h3>E. Gifts and Donations<\/h3><p>The library accepts gifts of books and other materials with the understanding that they will be added to the collection only if appropriate and needed. If they are not needed because of duplication, condition, or dated information the director can dispose of them as he\/she sees fit. The same criteria of selection which are applied to purchased materials are applied to gifts. Memorial gifts of books or money are also accepted with suitable bookplates placed in the book. Specific memorial books can be ordered for the library on request of a patron if the request meets the criteria established by the Board. It is desirable for gifts of or for specific titles to be offered after consultation with the library director. Book selection will be made by the director if no specific book is requested. The Kewaunee Public Library encourages and appreciates gifts and donations.<\/p><p>By law, the library is not allowed to appraise the value of donated materials, though it can provide an acknowledgment of receipt of the items if requested by the donor.<\/p><h3>F. Weeding<\/h3><p>An up-to-date, attractive and useful collection is maintained through a continual withdrawal and replacement process. Replacement of worn volumes is dependent upon current demand, usefulness, more recent acquisitions, and availability of newer editions. This ongoing process of weeding is the responsibility of the library director and is authorized by the Board of Trustees. Withdrawn materials will be handled in a similar manner and under the same authority as donated materials.<\/p><h3>G. Potential Problems or Challenges<\/h3><p>The Kewaunee Public Library recognizes that some materials are controversial and that any given item may offend some patrons. Selection of materials will not be made on the basis of anticipated approval or disapproval, but solely on the basis of the principles stated in this policy.<\/p><p>Responsibility for the reading materials of children rests with their parents or legal guardians. Selection of library materials will not be inhibited by the possibility that materials may come into the possession of children.<\/p><p>Library materials will not be marked or identified to show approval or disapproval of their contents, and no library material will be sequestered except to protect it from damage or theft.<\/p><h3>H. Challenged Materials<\/h3><p>Although materials are carefully selected, there can arise differences of opinion regarding suitable materials. Patrons requesting that material be withdrawn from or restricted within the collection may complete the reconsideration form which is available on our website or in the library. The inquiry will be placed on the agenda of the next regular meeting of the Kewaunee Public Library Board of Trustees. The Library Director and the Board of Trustees will review the challenged item and respond to the citizen. Decisions of the Board shall be final. No citizen may reissue a complaint for the same material for five years.<\/p><p>In order to request that material, programs, art, or exhibits be considered for exclusion or removal from the library, a patron must do the following:<\/p><ol><li>Be a resident of Kewaunee County. Residents\u2019 taxes pay for the materials held by the library; therefore, only residents may request that a material be reconsidered.<\/li><li>Be a library card holder from one of the Kewaunee County libraries.<\/li><li>Have reviewed the Kewaunee Public Library Collection Development Policy and the Library Bill of Rights.<\/li><li>Complete the Kewaunee Public Library Reconsideration Form. Only completed forms will be reviewed by the library. The library does not respond to anonymous phone calls, rumors, or voiced concerns according to the reconsideration process.<\/li><\/ol><p><em>Updated and Approved October 19, 2022<\/em><\/p>"},"elements":[],"widgetType":"text-editor"}],"isInner":false},{"id":"16ab7aa","elType":"container","settings":{"flex_direction":"column"},"elements":[{"id":"aa3a96c","elType":"widget","settings":{"editor":"<h2>Circulation Policy<\/h2><h3>A.
