The Library Collection

Censorship

The Ipswich Library & Information Service endeavors to provide an unbiased source of knowledge and ideas through a comprehensive and balanced collection while responding to a broad range of community needs. The collection includes material in print, audio-visual, and digital formats. The service is obligated to comply with the decisions made under State and Federal Law, including those by the Office of Film and Literature Classification.

The Ipswich Library & Information Service supports and endorses the Australian Library and Information Association's (ALIA) "Statement on free access to information".

Supervision of material read or accessed by persons under 18 years of age remains the responsibility of the parent or legal guardian.
