> Librarians are tasked with providing a wide variety of viewpoints and information.  Sometimes there are conflicts with where and how children’s books are cataloged to accommodate what parents and caregivers feel is right for their children.  How do we balance open access, accurate classification, and ease of use for all families without discrimination? Learn about a variety of the issues surrounding this topic as well as ways to help navigate them in your library with your hosts Carolyn Caywood and Peter Coyl.
