When someone faces a difficult intellectual freedom (IF) issue, they usually don't have time to wade through dense text to find the answers they need. Designed as a real-world reference, OIF's Intellectual Freedom Manual provides trusted, comprehensive guidance for every library worker, from the volunteer to the director, in plain language. Whether you're developing or reviewing policies, on-boarding new staff or trustees, responding to challenges and controversies, or studying librarianship, you'll find this a vital tool, with features such as
- contributions that center the voices of Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC) and LGBTQIA+ people, who are often targeted by censorship efforts;
- chapters that begin with an overview explaining the big ideas and offering reflection questions;
- an introduction to IF and why it matters, drawing on ALA's core IF documents and supported with adaptable policy worksheets;
- information and best practice guidance on key topics such as access, children and youth, censorship and internet filtering, collection development and management, copyright, meeting rooms and exhibit spaces, library programming, politics and religion, privacy, and visits and requests from law enforcement;
- stories from real people whose lives have been impacted by IF, showing how library policies shape culture, protect staff and users, and affect real people;
- concise breakdowns of IF issues from legal experts, helping you understand the laws and how they apply in real situations;
- practical advice on advocating for IF, getting help when challenges arise, lobbying, and working with your elected officials;
- a thorough index to help you quickly find the information you need; and
- a helpful glossary and selected bibliography of additional resources.
