Policy

Multnomah County Library upholds the principles of intellectual freedom and the public's right to know by providing people of all ages with access and guidance to information and collections that reflect all points of view. We will not exclude material because of its origin or background or because of the views it expresses. We will challenge censorship and cooperate with all groups concerned with resisting the abridgement of free expression and free access to ideas. We will neither deny nor abridge a person's right to use the library because of his/her age, economic level, beliefs, race, personal or physical characteristics.
