[Web4lib] policies for blogs

[HAZEL Margaret E]

Please share with all.  I'm interested in the intellectual freedom
aspects - public forums, etc., as well as how to protect users from
predators.

Subject: [Web4lib] policies for blogs

Hi Everyone,

 

We are in the process of starting a blog, but our director wants a
policy first. Something that would address, among other things, the
comments from the public - how do you decide what gets posted and what
doesn't, criteria, etc. I'm really not sure where to start. So, if any
libraries, especially public libraries, have a blog policy they could
share I would really appreciate it.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Sue
