FSHISD Library Materials Challenge Form

Under Texas Education Code (TEC) §33.027, a parent, district employee, or person residing in a school district may submit a written challenge to any library material in a school’s library catalog. To submit a written challenge, an eligible individual must complete and submit the Library Materials Challenge Form. In accordance with TEC §33.027, an individual completing the form must identify how the challenged library material violates library standards adopted by the Texas State Library and Archive Commission (TSLAC).

Upon receipt of a Library Materials Challenge Form:

· The district must submit a copy of the form to its local school library advisory council (LSLAC), no later than the fifth day after the written challenge is received.

· The district’s LSLAC must make a recommendation for action no later than the 90th day after the council receives the challenge.

· If a school district has not established an LSLAC, the school district’s board of trustees must take action on the written challenge at the first open meeting held after the 90th day after receipt of a written challenge.

· A school district must prohibit student access to challenged library material until the district takes action in response to the challenge.

An individual may submit an appeal to the board of trustees regarding a district’s response to a written challenge. The board must take action on an appeal at the first open meeting held after the appeal is filed.
