SENATE BILL 1221
RS30917 / S1221
The School Library Material Care act creates a consistent set of procedural requirements for Idaho school libraries regarding the selection, review, inventory management, and reconsideration of school library materials. Local school boards of trustees will be empowered to develop and adopt such policies, as well as appoint a committee, in partnership with local parents for the review and reconsideration procedures of school library materials. These policies shall include periodic curation, review, and revision of such materials, in addition to maintaining a complete and transparent inventory of current school library materials for parents and legal guardians of students enrolled at the relevant school. Effectively implementing these procedures will protect students from pornography and from accessing materials that are not appropriate for their maturity or interest. School libraries that are not compliant may not be open to students until such time as they achieve compliance with the developed procedures.
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the State or general fund because it requires no expenditure of State funds.
