It is the policy of the Library to reconsider any item selected for the Library collection at the formal request of a patron who is a cardholder or resident of the New Lenox Public Library District.
A Request for Reconsideration of Library Material form must be filled out by a patron wishing such action. The item in question will be reviewed by the Executive Director, in conjunction with a Selection Review Committee appointed by the Executive Director if deemed necessary. The Executive Director shall inform the patron requesting the review of the decision by letter or email. A copy of the communication sent to the patron as well as the initial Request for Reconsideration of Library Material form completed by the requesting patron shall be given to the Board of Trustees for informational purposes. The decision of the Executive Director may be appealed to the Board of Trustees by the patron.
Adopted by the Board of Trustees December 12, 2011; Revised December 11, 2017; Updated November 12, 2019
