Responsibility: Youth Services


POLICY

Materials presented in storytimes and to children in other group situations often provide the first impression of the library’s collection. Staff responsible for storytimes will select print and nonprint materials conforming to HCL selection and collections standards. These materials are shelved in non-public areas for the use by staff presenting the programs. Library staff responsible for children’s programs will do annual evaluations of the collection. The core storytime collection will remain in the agency when the Youth Services librarian transfers to another HCL agency. Collection Management Services (CMS) will continue to support the maintenance of storytime collections.
