Texas HB183 establishes a process for parents to request reviews of library materials in public school libraries.

Texas HB183 amends the Education Code to create a process for parents to request reviews of library materials in public school libraries. The State Board of Education must develop a form for parents to submit requests for review of materials they find inappropriate or sexually explicit. The board will review the material and determine if it is appropriate for certain grade levels or if it contains sexually explicit content. If the board cannot make a determination, the request will be referred to the agency for review.
