Guymon Public Library presents 2026 policy updates to council
Summary
The Guymon Public Library and Arts Center presented 2026 updates to collection development, circulation, interlibrary loan and internet‑use policies after staff and board review; council was invited to ask questions and the item received a motion to approve.
Blair presented the Guymon Public Library and Arts Center’s 2026 policy updates to the City Council, describing a multi‑step review that included staff work, library board review and attendance at policy workshops.
“Every year we do a final report for the state and each year there's a different part of the library we have to evaluate,” Blair said, describing changes to the material selection (collection development), circulation and interlibrary‑loan policies as well as the internet‑use policy.
Nut graf: The updates are part of routine annual reporting and policy review required for state reporting. Blair said staff worked with the library board and attended training workshops to ensure the policies meet state reporting expectations and local operational needs.
Council received the presentation, asked for clarification, and a motion to approve the policy update was made and seconded during the meeting. Blair invited council members to submit additional questions to staff.
Next steps: If formally approved by council, staff will finalize the policy documentation and submit the required state report per annual deadlines.
