CO SB063

Local education providers must establish written policies for acquisition, retention, display, use, and reconsideration of library resources by September 1, 2025

Library policies must comply with First Amendment protections as interpreted in Board of Education v. Pico (1982), protect against harassment and discrimination regarding protected classes, and prohibit obscene material under Miller v. California (1973)

Only parents of students enrolled at a specific public school may request reconsideration of library resources at that school, and the same resource cannot be reconsidered more than once every two years

Library resources cannot be removed, discontinued, or restricted until a final determination has been made and made publicly available

Library staff are protected from termination, demotion, discipline, or retaliation for refusing to remove resources before the formal review process is completed or for making good-faith decisions consistent with established policy
