Event Details

Library board, director and staff need to be attentive to the library policies that support the library and the staff and are fair to everyone. This is an introduction for small and medium sized libraries on assessing the needs of a policy, drafting, reviewing and revising. It is important that policies conform to current law and are reasonable. Library policies are informed by the library profession’s ethics and confidentiality practices.

(No need to travel to the Indiana State Library, you can attend from the comfort of your own library!)
