Library Mission Statement & Information

ALA Library Bill of Rights

Link: Library Bill of Rights

At Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, the library program aligns and affirms the American Library Association Library Bill of Rights in that all libraries are forums for information and ideas.

Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all students and staff. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation.
Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval.
Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.
Libraries should cooperate with all students, staff, and stakeholders concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas.
A person’s right to use a library should not be denied or abridged because of origin, age, background, or views.
The library is an active learning environment that stimulates a successful learning experience. The library is altered, maintained, and organized to accommodate all learning styles and success for all patrons.
