PLEASE

Public
Libraries are often seen as community centers in terms of their collections,

Standards now occurring in California and 44 other states, the time is perfect
for public libraries to be seen in their communities as an integral piece of
the CCSS.

students in California, as well as simple and effective ways to incorporate
them into existing library programs and services. Find out how to collaborate

"Public Libraries and the Homeless:
Legal Issues"
Date & Time: Tuesday, September 17, 2013.
Pacific - 12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM.
Description:
-
Does your library serve patrons who appear to be homeless?
-
Can you tell someone to leave large personal possessions outside the library?
-
What rights do library users have and what library policies do courts consider
reasonable?
Because
courts give greater latitude to library rules that are behavior focused, and a
tighter scrutiny to rules based on status or speech, it’s important to know the
how to frame your policies, especially when dealing with specific populations
such as the homeless.
This
one-hour webinar will look at the movement for Homeless Persons’ Bill of Rights
and Fairness, and the current legal rights and professional ethics as they
apply to public libraries.
It
will also discuss specific issues such as oversize parcels, behavior issues,
and qualifications for library cards for customers who don’t have a permanent
address.
At
the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will:
-
Know about the rights that homeless patrons have and rights they are striving
for
-
Review library ethical statements on service to the poor and the freedom to
read
-
Understand some legal nuances between rules that target behavior versus
rules that are focused on user status
This
webinar will be of interest to front line public staff, administrators,
trustees – particularly in public libraries, but the analysis applies to all
publicly funded libraries.

creative, social hands-on programs to attract them back to the library. Learn
how to remind your adult patrons--and yourself!--that lifelong learning really
is fun and fulfilling during this online session.
