The trustees recognize that the library’s circulation records and other records identifying the names of library users with specific materials are confidential. (NH RSA 201-D:11) The librarian and staff shall not make them available to any agency of state, federal or local government except pursuant to such process, order or subpoena as may be authorized under the written authority of, and pursuant to, federal, state, or local law relating to civil, criminal, or administrative discovery procedures or legislative investigative power.
The library’s officers will consult with their legal counsel to determine if such process, order, or subpoena is in proper form and if there is a showing of good cause of its issuance, if the process, order, or subpoena is not in proper form or if good cause has not been shown they will insist that such defects be cured.
The library keeps patron records of computer use, inter-library loan and reference interviews only until they have been counted for statistical purposes.
The library accepts no responsibility for enforcing what a parent/guardian may not want a child to see, read, or view from the library.
