The Daly City Public Library is committed to providing and promoting access to materials and services that support the needs for self-education, information, culture and recreation in our diverse community. The responsibility for selection of library materials lies with the staff of the Library.
Staff utilizes accepted reviewing sources and basic lists of standard works as an aid in selection.
Staff welcomes recommendations from the public. The City of Daly City and the Library Board of Trustees delegate the ultimate responsibility for materials selection to the Library Director who operates within the framework of policies endorsed by the Library Board of Trustees. The publicly supported library provides free and equal access to information for all people of the community it serves. The Library does not endorse the beliefs or viewpoints of those whose works are represented in its collections, but recognizes that important works representing a wide range of opinions should be in the collections. In no case is any material excluded because of the race, nationality, social, political or religious views of the author or others associated with the item.
