  • Scope and Summary: This assignment involves applying policies and standards to different scenarios in a school library setting. The scenarios include issues such as student intellectual property on the library website, staff access to internet resources, parent demands to remove items from the library collection, assigning librarians to teach classes in other content areas, and organizations wanting to donate materials to the library.

  • AASL Standard: This project aligns with ALA/AASL Standard 4.1 Access.

    • This standard involves facilitating and advocating for equitable access to library resources and services.
    • The assignment required me to apply policies and standards to scenarios that directly impact access, such as:
      • Ensuring confidentiality of student intellectual property on the library website.
      • Addressing staff access to internet resources.
      • Handling parent demands to remove items from the library collection.
      • Determining the appropriateness of donated materials.
    • Each scenario requires me to consider ethical codes and develop solutions to ensure equitable access to information.
