Dear School Librarians,
For your awareness, the following email was sent today to each Utah LEA's appointed representative for reporting sensitive materials to USBE. Please reach out to me privately if you have any questions.
In addition to reaching out with questions, I also encourage you to continue enjoying your summer, pick up a good book, get out into the mountains (where its cooler 🙂) and have a wonderful weekend!
Warmly,
Davina Sauthoff Library Media Specialist Utah State Board of Education 250 E 500 S | Salt Lake City, UT 84114 P: 801-538-7530| E: davina.sauthoff@schools.utah.govmailto:davina.sauthoff@schools.utah.gov
Dear LEA-appointed representatives for reporting sensitive materials,
We appreciate all your efforts in the implementation of §53G-10-103 and USBE. As required by §53G-10-103 and Board Rule R277-628, this email serves as communication by USBE to all LEAs that the titles in the list below have met the statewide threshold and should be removed from student access in all Utah public schools.

It will be updated regularly as any additional titles meet the statewide threshold
I encourage you to reach out any time if you have any questions or concerns.
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
