Abstract	This manual advises library administrators in the state of New York on the responsibilities of individual institutions regarding censorship, patron confidentiality, and other intellectual freedom issues. Besides listing organizations available for consultation, the manual recommends procedures and policies for dealing with law enforcement inquiries, materials selection questions, reconsideration requests, and unequal access. The texts of some relevant federal and state laws are provided. A bibliography lists 52 information sources. Appendices include: (1) New York Library Association forms, including a self-censorship quiz, membership applications, an incident report form, and a formal request for assistance; (2) three sample policies, one each from an academic, public, and school library in New York State; and (3) American Library Association policy documents, including, among other things, the Freedom to Read Statement and the Library Bill of Rights.
