Your Child and the Library
The Deschutes Public Library provides a wide variety of materials which represent
many points of view on topics of interest to the community.
The library invites individuals to apply their own personal and family values when
selecting items to browse, borrow, or use online, and encourages parents to be involved
with their own children’s choices. To assist in the selection of
materials, the library organizes the collection according to age and interest levels,
but interests, appropriateness, and ability vary widely. Please contact staff
for assistance in making selections that are best for you. We provide the choices
so that you may make the decisions for you and your family.
The Library believes that the right to read and otherwise freely access information
is an important part of the intellectual freedom that is basic to democracy, and
hereby subscribe to the
Library Bill of Rights, the
Freedom To Read Statement, and the
Freedom to View Statement as adopted by the
American Library Association.
