Library Bill of Rights











The American Library Association (ALA)
"was founded in 1876 in Philadelphia and subsequently chartered in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Its mission is “to provide leadership for the development, promotion, and improvement of library and information services and the profession of librarianship in order to enhance learning and ensure access to information for all.”
The ALA authored a Library Bill of Rights that was adopted June 18, 1948, by the ALA Council.
