YOU ARE GIVEN THE FREEDOM TO READ.
#LibrariesTransform
Libraries defend equity of access to information to support a thriving democracy and to cater for all members of the library community.
As stated in the APLA-ALIA Standards and Guidelines for Australian Public Libraries, public library collections should cover a wide range of popular topics, express a variety of viewpoints and cultural understandings, and represent a diversity of people, places, events, issues and ideas.
ALIA continues to work to ensure that all Australians have the freedom to choose what they read, that libraries and information services are welcoming and inclusive places for all Australians and that library and information staff are supported in their professional duties.
