Our libraries are governed by many laws and touched by many principles. They are subject to change by the culture, politics, legislatures, rulemaking, and court interpretations. This presentation will survey major topics that affect our libraries, including:
Efforts to use the First Amendment as a sword instead of a shield;
New Colorado laws and court cases impacting libraries;
Colorado Open Records Act (“CORA”) compliance under time constraints;
Taxation and finance changes that affect the bottom line, and much more!
