Kathy responded that we have no criteria but that everything we bought is also at other Cape libraries. <br /> Carnes(like DVD and other materials)are rated. Teens can borrow adult materials using their own cavi. <br /> Trustees said perhaps this 1s something we should look at when reviewing policies. <br /> Kathy asked Trustees what approval date(s)should appear on approved Library policies. The Trustees agreed <br /> that Trustee approval date should appear on the policy document and everybody's approval date should appear <br /> on the spreadsheet list. "Everybody" includes Trustees,Town Manager, Town Counsel,ate. Kathy will send <br /> out a spreadsheet co y of the list and policies electronically to the Trustees and she will place one in the Trustee <br /> p <br /> handbook. <br /> 0 Next policy Kathy vill review will probably be Child Safety and also Bulletin board policy. <br />
