<br>
Following continued feedback and discussions with librarians and industry partners regarding a potential parental control module for Destiny Library Manager, we have concluded<b style="font-family:Lato,sans-serif"> we will NOT proceed with any plans to develop this module</b> and as a result,
will be cancelling Monday’s webchat.<br>
<br>
At Follett, our mission is to support librarians and get books into the hands of students. We support the American Library Association’s Library Bill of Rights, and we are focused on advancing – not limiting – the role of the librarian and the school library.<br>
<br>
We take very seriously the feedback we have received from librarians and our industry partners regarding legislation on these matters. We will continue to work directly with impacted districts to understand these new laws.<br>

Thanks for your continued support.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Hi all,<u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u><u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">I wanted to share with you an update on a censorship concern that has been made public this week coming from Follett and their software program, Destiny.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">In short, the school library ILS and collection development company Follett, is rolling out an “optional” update to their ILS, Destiny, which would immediately email parents the titles and
synopsis of books their children check-out. It would also allow parents to block their children from reading materials based of subject headings they deem ‘inappropriate’. If you want to read more about this deeply concerning upgrade see:

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">To combat this, the OIFC members (huge thanks to Miranda Doyle for spearheading this!) have drafted a petition letter to the President of Follett requesting that they remove this upgrade
immediately, based off intellectual freedom rights of students. See letter petition is linked here:<u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u><u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u></span></p>

to that session. We are hoping to gather signatures today and email it to the President on Monday.<u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u><u style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></u></span></p>
