  c. restricting students' access to information violates the ALA Code of Ethics and the AASL Access to Resources and Services in the School Library Media Program: An Interpretation of the Library Bill of Rights.
  d. whether the parent has filed a formal complaint for complete removal of the book from the library media center.
