Summer Hours of Operation Monday-Friday 10:00 AM-4:00 PM

==The mission of the Palm Valley Media Center is to maintain and improve the quality of life for all citizens of our community by providing resources that enhance and contribute to individual knowledge, enlightenment, and enjoyment in the most efficient manner possible. We especially recognize our responsibility to serve as a place for children to discover the joy of reading and the value of libraries. ==

**American Library Association Bill of Rights**
==The American Library Association affirms that all libraries are forums for information and ideas, and that the following basic policies should guide their services. ==

== I. Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation. ==

== ﻿II. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval. ==

III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.
==IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas. ==

V. A person’s right to use a library should not be denied or abridged because of origin, age, background, or views.
==﻿VI. Libraries that make exhibit spaces and meeting rooms available to the public they serve should make such facilities available on an equitable basis, regardless of the beliefs or affiliations of individuals or groups requesting their use. ==
