The American Library Association has a code of ethics that was adopted in 1939, but later revised in 1981, which states that a librarian must protect intellectual property and must teach others to do the same. The librarian must not allow their personal beliefs to restrict access to information by users. A librarian must also strive to provide the best service by being knowledgeable about how library system works.
