Library Book Purchase List on Consent Agenda
The board will approve a list of library books for purchase as part of the consent agenda. The list of titles is not included in the agenda, preventing public review of materials before the vote.
Policy Use
PULL THE DOCUMENT: Before the vote on Consent Agenda Item 10.B, retrieve the list of library books to be purchased. This item’s placement on the consent agenda limits public scrutiny of materials entering school libraries.
