Displays Policy Draft <br />Promotional displays of library materials at the Louisville Public Library are designed to support the <br />library's mission of being a welcoming place for the community to connect, discover, and grow. Displays <br />are a creation of library staff on a variety of topics using materials in the library collection and can <br />include books, digital materials, and signage. To create displays, library staff use the following criteria: <br />• Support of the Library's mission and strategic plan <br />• Community needs and interests <br />• Historical, educational, or artistic significance <br />• Connection to other community or national programs, exhibitions, or events <br />• Promotion of diversity and inclusivity in our community <br />In addition, the Library draws upon other community resources in developing displays, and may partner <br />with other community agencies, organizations, educational institutions, or individuals to develop and <br />present co -sponsored displays. The Library will strive to include a wide spectrum of opinions and <br />viewpoints in Library -initiated displays, as well as offer displays that appeal to a range of ages, interests, <br />and information needs. The Library does not accept responsibility for ensuring that all points of view are <br />represented in any single display. <br />Library displays will not exclude topics, books, media, and other resources solely because they may be <br />considered controversial. A display in the Library does not constitute an endorsement by the Library or <br />City of Louisville of the content of the display, or of the views expressed in materials on display. <br />
