Hello,

This is the fourth request for feedback from the ALA Intellectual Freedom
Committee (IFC) after the Midwinter Meeting. In anticipation of a new
edition of the Intellectual Freedom Manual, the IFC is continuing to update
intellectual freedom-related documents.

The IFC would appreciate feedback on two interpretation drafts *by
Wednesday, May 29*:  "Rating Systems
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/librarybill/interpretations/rating-systems>"
(adopted in 2015), "Access to Library Resources and Services for Minors
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/librarybill/interpretations/access-library-resources-for-minors>"
(adopted in 1972, amended in 1981, 1991, 2004, 2008 under previous name
"Free Access to Libraries for Minors", and 2014), "User-Generated Content
in Library Discovery Systems
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/librarybill/interpretations/usergenerated>"
(adopted in 2016),  and "Privacy
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/librarybill/interpretations/privacy>"
(adopted in 2002, amended in 2014).

Please feel free to share this message widely. Feedback can be posted in
the following two ways:

   - Post feedback on the Google Docs, linked below. The IFC requests that
      you post comments on the documents, rather than edit the documents
      directly. To post a comment, select "Insert" in the top menu, and then
      click "Comment." Comments may be posted anonymously (if you're not signed
      into a Google account) or publicly (if you're signed into your Google
      account).
         - "Rating Systems: An Interpretation of the *Library Bill of
         Rights*
         <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Fd1yKwXtlDF07tDvF29tItz-tSrg2ssKXFubQKbVNiA/edit#heading=h.9hnuqbnf9b3p>
         "
         - "Access to Library Resources and Services for Minors: An
         Interpretation of the *Library Bill of Rights*
         <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iH9xItXWrkPf2k5Cx9CHIi36Cn2uieBhbClp-yJSKsw/edit>
         "
         - "User-Generated Content in Library Discovery Systems: An
         Interpretation of the *Library Bill of Rights*
         <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I-VxBwOpe5K4TRaeeOKWZYFKuVICGLIgUYlqH-eLkDY/edit?usp=sharing>
         "
         - "Privacy: An Interpretation of the Library Bill of Rights
         <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zm91KWYp50j9KaU5L3txBSQnGH5F_pv-vHYcc59ii6M/edit?usp=sharing>
         "


   - Using "track changes," add comments and edits to the attached Word
   drafts. You can email them to me (glynnj at kenyon.edu) or post them as a
   comment to this ALA Connect post
   <https://connect.ala.org/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread?MessageKey=4289ee49-64a7-4cbd-8775-f9b03b419b24&CommunityKey=927d02c1-673b-4e91-9911-8fdf8dc3407f&tab=digestviewer#bm4289ee49-64a7-4cbd-8775-f9b03b419b24>,
   and I'll forward them to working group members.

The Intellectual Freedom Committee will make revisions to the drafts in
light of your suggestions and plans to distribute the documents to ALA
Council prior to ALA Annual Conference in Washington DC. The committee also
plans to present them at ALA Council Forum for further feedback.



Thank you in advance for your suggestions, and please let me know if you
have any questions,



Julia Warga, Chair
Intellectual Freedom Committee
