CITY OF MOORPARK MOORPARK LIBRARY BOARD AGENDA REPORT TO: Moorpark Library Board FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Deputy Parks and Recreation Director DATE: 12/9/2025 (Regular Meeting) SUBJECT: Consider Update to PRCS-12 Moorpark City Library Materials Selection Policy and Material Reconsideration Form BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The Moorpark City Library policy, PRCS-12, guides Library Materials Selection for the library. Every year an item is reviewed by the Library Board to consider collection management activities for the following year. In 2024, the State of California passed AB 1825 California Freedom to Read Act (The Act). Among the various provisions of the act is a requirement that all Public Library jurisdictions maintain a written and publicly accessible collection development policy and requires that the policy include various provisions. Specifically, The Act requires that the collection development policy must guide the selection and deselection of library materials. The policy must establish a process for community members to share their concerns regarding library materials and request materials be reconsidered for inclusion in the Public Library’s collection. The Collection Development Policy must acknowledge that the Public Library’s collection meets the broad and diverse interests of the community and respects both the Public Library’s autonomy and its specific community needs, that library materials should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people, and should present diverse points of view in the collection as a whole, the right of the public to receive access to a range of social, political, aesthetic, moral, and other ideas and experiences and establish that the Public Library serves as a center for voluntary inquiry and the dissemination of information and ideas. The California State Library is responsible for reviewing each library’s collection development policy to ensure it meets the requirements of The Act. At the November 12, 2025 Library Board meeting, staff presented an updated Policy PRCS-12 intended to meet the requirements of The Act. At that meeting, the Library Board had requested whether the City Attorney had reviewed the policy and requested that more information and a form be provided for the Material Reconsideration section of the policy. The City Attorney’s office has reviewed the policy and made revisions to emphasize that the City’s processes and decisions are content and viewpoint-neutral, as required by the Act. Revisions were also made to provide more clarity on the Reconsideration of Materials process including eligibility, the requirement to fill out a form, and timeframe for response to a request. The City Attorney also reorganized several sections to improve clarity and readability. The redline version with the City Attorney’s changes is attached to the staff report, as well as a clean version of the document for easier reading. 1 Library Board Regular Meeting 12/9/2025 Page 2 The revised policy also includes reference to the form that needs to be filled out for reconsideration of materials. The form has been attached for review and consideration by the Library Board. Staff has also confirmed that the form can be made into an online form and provided on the City’s website, in addition to being able to request a paper copy at the circulation desk in the library. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1.Review revisions to PRCS-12 Moorpark City Library Collection Development policy for compliance with AB 1825 and recommend approval to the Parks and Recreation Director; and 2.Review and provide input on Material Reconsideration Form.

Mission The Moorpark City Library (“Library”), operated by the City of Moorpark, provides information, lifelong learning, inspiration, and enjoyment to people of all ages through access to reading and technology. This Collection Development Policy (“Policy”), reviewed by the Moorpark Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department in conjunction with the City Attorney’s Office, establishes print and electronic material collection development, management, selection, de-selection, and reconsideration guidelines for Library staff. The Library maintains this written and publicly accessible Policy, which has been adopted and submitted to the State Librarian pursuant to “California Freedom to Read Act” (newly added Education Code sections 19800-19802) established under Assembly Bill (“AB”) 1825. 2. General Governing Factors The library materials selection process is governed by the following considerations: 1. The needs of the individual and community; 2. The individual merits of each work without reference to topic, views, ideas, or opinions therein; 3. The Library’s existing collection, budget, and services; and 4. Intellectual freedom principles, including those outlined in the American Library Association’s “Library Bill of Rights,” a copy of which is available at the Moorpark Library Circulation Desk and City Clerk’s office. The Library serves as a “center for voluntary inquiry and the dissemination of information and ideas.” The collection reflects the community’s broad and diverse interests; provides for the “interest, information and acknowledgement of all people[;]” presents diverse viewpoints; and respects both the Library’s autonomy and specific community needs. Finally, the Library acknowledges the public’s right to “receive access to a range of social, political, aesthetic, moral and other ideas and experiences.” Accordingly, the Library establishes a process for community members to share concerns about materials and request reconsideration for inclusion, as discussed below. 3. Principles of Selection The Library’s selection process is guided by the following principles: A. The Library aims to obtain and make readily accessible materials, including books, and other print, non-print, digital or online materials, that fulfill the cultural, educational, and recreational needs of City residents. The Library shall further ensure that the collection reflects and is sourced from the diverse backgrounds, identities, viewpoints, and lived experiences of the Moorpark community, in both physical and digital formats.
