There are no public areas of the library that are restricted to particular age groups. All library materials and equipment are provided on open shelves and through open display access. Authority for selection of appropriate information and reading materials resides with the individual and with the parent or legal guardian in guiding the selection of appropriate materials for children. Library staff members may make recommendations to subject and content of material based on the needs of a diverse population and collection requirements; staff members cannot make a judgment as to what is suitable for each individual.

Hall County Library System personnel will make every effort to assist all patrons in a fair and equitable manner. All procedures and policy will be applied equitably to all patrons for the safety and security of library patrons, library personnel, and library resources and in order to provide best quality of library service possible. No individual or group, including library personnel, shall be entitled to special consideration or privileges other than those afforded to all other library patrons.
