Sept: Public Libraries and the Homeless: Legal Issues (InfoPeople)

September 17 (12-1 pm PST)
Public Libraries and the Homeless: Legal Issues (InfoPeople)

Because courts give greater latitude to library rules that are behavior focused, and a tighter scrutiny to rules based on status or speech, it’s important to know the how to frame your policies, especially when dealing with specific populations such as the homeless. This one-hour webinar will look at the movement for Homeless Persons’ Bill of Rights and Fairness, and the current legal rights and professional ethics as they apply to public libraries.
