Elizabethtown Area Schools Won't Revisit Library Book Issue

(Harrisburg, PA) -- The Elizabethtown Area School Board has voted not to revisit a proposed library materials policy. The school board had said they'd update the guidelines last summer to include a new rating system to identify mature content. Members of the all-Republican board recently voted 5-to-4 in a straw poll not to discuss Policy 109. It required an ongoing effort to review and rate more than 46-thousand books in the district's four libraries. Board member James Gilles says the policy as it currently stands doesn't go far enough to remove inappropriate material.
