<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6">As a reminder, the Oregon Intellectual Freedom Clearinghouse is a service of the State Library of Oregon. It was established in 1987 with the primary mission to collect and compile information
about intellectual freedom issues at libraries in Oregon. The OIFC also provides information to libraries to help them prepare for and address intellectual freedom issues. In this capacity, we also participate on the Oregon Library Association Intellectual
Freedom Committee. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
