About

Missouri Central Region Library Alliance (MCRL) is a group of community members who live and work in Johnson and Lafayette Counties in Missouri. Our mission is to support and amplify the work of the Trails Regional Library system and the efforts of all librarians to uphold our First Amendment rights. We believe in the freedom of the library to provide services to all patrons no matter their ethnicity, religion, gender identity, education status, political affiliation, socioeconomic status or any other diversity of life and thought. 

The MCRL Alliance is opposed to censorship in any form and will stand with librarians to voice our support of their expertise and understanding of collection management and the library sciences. We encourage anyone interested in learning more about our local library policies on collection development, censorship, or any other library policy to visit trailslibrary.org/about.

The MCRL Alliance understands that community members hold strong opinions and beliefs, but the targeting and defamation of individuals will not be tolerated. We will support all MCRL Alliance members as well as library employees facing harassment or defamation.
