Website Collection Policy

The major goal in providing links to websites is to support customers in meeting their literacy; learning; culture, leisure and recreation; and information needs by referring them to relevant and useful websites.

To this end, we will provide access to a range of materials representing a variety of viewpoints within the context of demand for topics covered, space on our website and availability of relevant sites.

While LPL endeavors to provide links to authoritative information on websites by following these guidelines and criteria, we do not endorse the content of linked sites nor are we responsible for any information that may be posted on these sites.
