Comal ISD adopts SB13-driven library resources policy; district does not create SLAC
Summary
Trustees approved EFB(LOCAL) revisions reflecting SB13 changes to library materials procedures and challenges; Comal ISD’s adopted policy does not implement the optional School Library Advisory Council (SLAC) structure in SB13.
The Board approved EFB(LOCAL) INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS — LIBRARY RESOURCES on Aug. 28 after a presentation by Dr. Randy Davis and Scott Monroe explaining statutory changes under SB13. The presentation noted that SB13 alters processes for acquiring and challenging library materials and that TASB provided model language for districts.
District staff told trustees the recommended policy does not provide for a School Library Advisory Council option; the Board voted to adopt the policy under BF(LOCAL) emergency-adoption authority so the district’s approach aligns with the law before the bill’s effective date on Sept. 1, 2025.
