We are revising our Meeting Room Policy. Currently we have a group of seniors who meet at our library for [really healthy] exercise in the morning before the library is open.

We are an association library that would like to appoint our interim director to the permanent position, but we are concerned: Do we have to have a search?  Are there any legal

I am interested in developing a policy to outline who/how the library may collect donations on behalf of other organizations.

I have several questions related to the legality and ethics of individuals serving as municipal library trustees. Who can serve, and who can or should not?

Does a contractor have to comply with FOIL request if they are contracted to a county government?

How long should the library retain employee records, payroll records, sales and purchase records, mortgage and loan documents, and other records?

We recently received 2 questions that raised related issues, so we've merged them in this "Ask the Lawyer Meeting Room Question Mash-Up" RAQ.

Sometimes, people nap in the library, particularly people who we believe might not have stable or sufficient housing.

Periodically, our library receives handwritten requests for information from individuals who are incarcerated at prisons and correctional facilities around the country.

This is an issue that's come up in recent conversation.
