STATEMENT OF PURPOSE OF THE MARION PUBLIC LIBRARY
The Marion Public Library is chartered to serve the residents of the Town of Marion, who are of varied ages and of many economic and educational levels, and possess a wide range of interests and viewpoints. Also, because of our membership in the four-county OWWL Library System (Wayne, Ontario, Livingston and Wyoming), we serve, when requested, the population of this area. We attempt to fill the informational, recreational, cultural and educational needs of our users, and to encourage non-users to avail themselves of our services.
ACCESS TO MATERIALS
The Marion Public Library strives to provide the community with materials containing wide-ranging subject matter and expressing diverse viewpoints. Some of this material may not be suitable for children or teens. Parents differ in when they allow their children access to these adult-themed materials. Since parents are the best judge of what is appropriate for each individual child the Marion Public Library allows anyone, regardless of age, to checkout any items in the library. Parents have the responsibility to assure that the items their children obtain at the library comply with their personal views of age appropriateness.
