Bloomberg Article: The Fight For The American Public Library

Good Morning, Thought I would share this article. Ferndale Area District Library is noted... [ https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2023-04-26/how-to-protect-your-local... | https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2023-04-26/how-to-protect-your-local... ] Jim Jim Flury Technical Services Manager The Library Network 41365 Vincenti Court Novi, MI 48375 248-536-3100, ext 133 Note New Fax Number: 248-716-5584 Note New Email Address:jflury@tln.org

Hi everyone, I often get asked for our Request for Reconsideration form so I'm sharing it here in case anyone wants to see it. Feel free to use all or part of it. We purposely don't post it on our website (just our policy is there) so that challengers have to actually contact us and ask for it. Our Library Board approved this last summer. I borrowed a little from the forms used by East Lansing PL and Baldwin PL when I worked on it so I just wanted to give them some credit too! Of course, as Clare Membiela always advises, we run everything through our attorney Anne Seurynk. Thank you, Jenny Marr she/her/hers Director Ferndale Area District Library 222 E 9 Mile Rd, Ferndale, MI 48220 (Office) 248-547-6000 (Library) 248-546-2504 www.fadl.org <http://www.ferndalepubliclibrary.org> New email address: jmarr@fadl.org On Thu, Apr 27, 2023 at 8:34 AM Jim Flury <jflury@tln.org> wrote:
