Summary

The bill obligates every public school district, including charter schools, to create written policies that forbid discrimination against library materials and their creators. It sets a standardized, transparent procedure—initiated only by a student or parent—for removing, restricting, or discontinuing any library resource, and protects library staff from retaliation. The policies must be approved by the state education department by September 1, 2026.
