The library strives to serve people of all ages at all levels of need and endorses the Library Bill of Rights and the Freedom to Read documents as they apply to the use of electronic information. We endorse the American Library Association's document Access to Electronic Information, Services and Networks: an Interpretation of the Library Bill of Rights.
Inappropriate use of the internet will result in a cancellation of access for a period of seven to thirty days. Examples of inappropriate use include, but are not limited to, the following:
Illegal acts involving library computing resources may also be subject to prosecution by local, state or federal authorities.
We firmly believe that the valuable information available on this worldwide network far outweighs the possibility that users may come across material that may be offensive to them. The library does not monitor, has no control over the information accessed through the internet and cannot be held responsible for its content. The library may place software or other automated devices (such as filters) on workstations placed in departments specifically devoted to serving youth. These devices, while designed to eliminate material of a sexual nature from appearing on screens, do not remove everything which some might find objectionable. Parents are encouraged to monitor and supervise their children’s use of the internet.
The Library has wireless access to the Internet for users with laptops, notebook computers, smart phones, and other mobile devices to enhance and expand access to this important tool in the Library. Users with a wireless capability can use the Library's wireless access to use the Internet.
Wireless users are expected to follow the Library's Internet Use policy, and violations of the policy will result in the loss of library privileges. All users are expected to use the Library's wireless access in a legal and responsible manner, consistent with the educational and informational purposes for which it is provided. The Library does not monitor the use of the Internet by laptop users. Parents need to be aware that wireless access is unfiltered and unrestricted.
The Library's wireless connection is not secure, and information transmitted could potentially be intercepted by another wireless user. Wireless users may choose not to transmit personal information (credit card numbers, passwords, etc.) while using any public wireless area. Please take appropriate precautions when using this service.
Staff can provide general information on connecting to the Internet, with the understanding that the Library and staff members are not responsible for computer equipment, software malfunctions or lost data. The library’s staff will assist patrons with internet use as time permits but cannot provide personal instruction. All wireless access users are encouraged to have up-to-date virus protection on their laptop computers or wireless devices. The Library is not responsible for any information that is compromised, or for any damage caused to hardware or software, such as electric surges, security issues or consequences caused by viruses or computer hacking.
Mary Gilkey Public Library’s collection development policy reflects the mission of public libraries to provide access to information and support diversity, democracy and intellectual freedom.
It is the goal of the library to provide free, equal, and equitable access to a high quality collection of information resources in a variety of formats, reflective of the diversity of the community. Materials available in the library present a diversity of viewpoints, enabling the community to make the informed choices necessary in a democracy. In support of preserving and encouraging the essential free expression of ideas, Mary Gilkey Public Library endorses the principles documented in the Library Bill of Rights the Freedom to Read Statement, and the Freedom to View Statement of the American Library Association.
Selection and collection maintenance of library materials is under the authority and at the discretion of the Library Director.
All materials, whether purchased or donated, are considered in terms of the criteria listed below. An item need not meet all of these standards in order to be added to the collection.
The Mary Gilkey Public Library is a popular materials library, and maintains a varied and current collection covering a wide range of subjects and containing multiple points of view. The library's collection is dynamic, with an emphasis on up-to-date and in-demand materials. The library provides information resources in physical and electronic formats in an effort to deliver the broadest possible access to content both within and beyond the library’s walls.
The majority of the library's collection development activities will be conducted to create a collection of popular and informational works that is evaluated continually. The collection embraces broad fields of knowledge with basic, representative works in many subject areas, emphasizing materials that are useful for the general public. Textbooks and materials of a highly technical or specialized nature of limited community interest will generally not be collected.
Access to other specialized and comprehensive collections that exist elsewhere in the Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service (CCRLS) or in the state of Oregon is provided through cooperative networking, interlibrary loan, and direct referral.
The library encourages input from its community concerning the collection. A suggestion for purchase form enables the Dayton community to request that a particular item or material on a certain subject be purchased by the library. All suggestions for purchase are subject to the same selection criteria as other materials and are not automatically added to the collection. It is the library’s intent that suggestions for purchase be used to help the library in developing collections which serve the interests and needs of the community.
The library is unable to accept donated items at this time. Please consider donating to another CCRLS member library, a retirement home, or neighborhood Little Free Library.
In an effort to maintain a relevant, popular, and appealing collection, the library engages in ongoing evaluation of owned materials. This policy’s selection criteria, the CREW method, and other best practices are used when evaluating collections.
Items withdrawn from the collection that are in acceptable condition will be donated at the discretion of the Library Director. Items in poor condition will be destroyed and recycled as possible.
Replacement of damaged, missing, and withdrawn materials is not automatic. The decision to replace is determined by the selection criteria listed in this policy.
Members of the Dayton community that are concerned about the appropriateness of a particular item in the library's collection will be referred to Librarian and fill out a Request for Reconsideration form. The Library Director and City Manager will review the request and apply the selection criteria set forth in this policy to determine if the item should be removed or re-categorized. Their decision on reconsideration is the City of Dayton's final decision. The item under review will not be removed from circulation during the review process. Reasonable efforts will be made by the library to respond in writing regarding the disposition of the Request for Reconsideration within 60 days of receipt of the completed Request for Reconsideration form.
The Mary Gilkey Public Library is committed to providing a broad and diverse collection, and its collection development activities are guided by the above principles and criteria. This policy expresses the library’s commitment to intellectual freedom. Library resources are for use by all members of the Dayton community, and the library strives to reflect the needs and diversity of that community in its collections.
The leaders of the member libraries comprising Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Services (CCRLS) are committed to anti-racism.
Our libraries welcome everyone. As library leaders, we particularly condemn the systemic racism which adversely affects the lives of Black, Indigenous , and People of Color. Such prejudice is antithetical to the institutional values of our libraries. We are committed to fighting racism wherever we find it in ourselves and our communities. In doing so we reaffirm that our libraries are:
We acknowledge that no institution is free of bias, and that it is our responsibility to look deeply at our own libraries and actively strive towards justice for all who live in our communities. We stand with ALA and our library colleagues across the country in condemning violence and racism.
To encourage awareness in ourselves and in our communities, the CCRLS member libraries encourage exploration of anti-racism activism, police violence in the United States, and related topics by starting with our online catalog of books and electronic resources.
Los líderes de las bibliotecas miembros que componen Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Services (CCRLS) están comprometidos con el antirracismo.
Nuestras bibliotecas dan la bienvenida a todos. Como líderes bibliotecarios, condenamos particularmente el racismo sistémico que afecta negativamente las vidas de los negros, indígenas y personas de color. Tal prejuicio es antitético a los valores institucionales de nuestras bibliotecas. Estamos comprometidos a luchar contra el racismo dondequiera que lo encontremos en nosotros mismos y en nuestras comunidades. Al hacerlo, reafirmamos que nuestras bibliotecas son:
Reconocemos que ninguna institución está libre de prejuicios y que es nuestra responsabilidad mirar profundamente en nuestras propias bibliotecas y luchar activamente por la justicia para todos los que viven en nuestras comunidades. Apoyamos a ALA y a nuestros colegas bibliotecarios de todo el país para condenar la violencia y el racismo. Para fomentar la conciencia en nosotros mismos y en nuestras comunidades, las bibliotecas miembros de CCRLS fomentan la exploración del activismo contra el racismo, la violencia policial en los Estados Unidos y temas relacionados comenzando con nuestro catálogo en línea de libros y recursos electrónicos.
