The Foley Public Library is a nationally recognized award-winning library that strives to
serve our diverse community in the best manner possible. Additionally, the Foley Public
Library is a member of the Baldwin County Library Cooperative (BCLC). We want to
encourage all of our patrons to understand as stated in the BCLC Policy Manual
Handbook, “The presence of material in the library must not be construed as a personal
endorsement of their contents by any member of the staff, the Library Board, or the
County Commission. The library has a responsibility to collect materials expressing a
variety of views and opinions.”

The City of Foley and the Foley Public Library recognize the concerns that parents and
other members of the public have about the intellectual growth of their children. This
includes concerns about the material being read by children and about the free access
to information guaranteed to Americans. Some parents may want their children to have
access to some of these books and others may not. It is the parents’ prerogative and
duty to decide what material is suitable for their children at any given stage in their lives. At the Foley Public Library, no child 15 or younger may check out a book without a
parent’s approval. The City of Foley leadership wants to ensure the Foley Public Library is a safe place
that provides information to all members of its diverse community. We do this by taking
steps to continually empower all families to uphold their beliefs for their children. We will
continue to evaluate our policies and will make every effort to address all the concerns
of our citizens.

🍂🎃 October is flying by, and our Children’s Department has been BUSY! We’re already halfway through the month, and we’ve been filling our days with creativity, curiosity, and lots of fun! ✨

From hands-on crafts and exciting STEAM projects to exploring new ideas, learning through play, and making special memories together, there’s been no shortage of fun and discovery! 🎨🔬🧪 Our young learners have been busy creating, experimenting, problem-solving, and letting their imaginations shine.

We love seeing all the creativity, smiles, and enthusiasm our children bring to every activity! 💛 And the best part? We still have more October fun ahead! 🍁👻

Bites & Insights: Legal Use of Force

Foley Community Library is proud to welcome the United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA) to Bites & Insights, a new lecture series where local presenters share their knowledge and expertise with the community, while attendees simply listen, learn, and enjoy some light refreshments courtesy of the library.

The USCCA will be presenting on “Legal Use of Force.” In the heat of the moment when chaos is happening around you and tunnel vision is setting in, you need to know what to expect before, during, and after a self-defense incident. Topics of discussion will include:

Castle Doctrine, Stand Your Ground, & 4 Rules Governing Deadly Use of Force
The legal aftermath of a self-defense situation
Reasonable Force
How to quickly take action and save lives
USCCA
Scenario Q&A
