NEW POLICY FOR MEETINGS AT LIBRARY
A new policy setting requirements and regulations
for public meetings at High Point Public Library has
been approved by the library board of trustees.
The new policy clarifies who may use the library
meeting room, for what purposes, and outlines
responsibilities of users in regard to the library and the
public. The agreement must be signed by a
representative of a scheduling group before use of the
room.
According to the board’s policy statement, the library
provides its meeting room for groups, agencies and
organizations as a service to the community. The policy
states:
“Any meeting held in the library must be for
purposes consistent with the general objectives and
goals of the library. These include the communication
of ideas, promotion of an enlightened citizenry,
enrichment of personal life and the general support of
educational, cultural and civic activities of the
community.”
Because a group is permitted to meet at the public
library does not mean endorsement by the library of the
group’s beliefs, policies or programs, the policy says.
Some of the criteria redefined in the new policy are:
The room may not be used for sectarian or
denominational religious programs, nor for partisan
political purposes.
