Are students allowed to check out books from the Parent Library section?
Yes. The Parent Library is a result of Arkansas’ Parental Involvement Act 603 of 2003. One part of this law mandates the “purchase of parenting books, magazines and other information material regarding responsible parenting through the school library, advertisement of the current selection, and to give parents an opportunity to borrow the materials”. This law does not limit this collection to only parents nor does it designate the Parent Library as a place to put restricted materials.
