| Categories for additional library policies | Examples |
| History of the library | Some library policies contain a history of the library. Since we recommend that every trustee have a orientation packet, we recommend putting library histories in these packets, not in the policy. |

| Who may use the library | Since CKLS member libraries receive funding from the rural areas of 16 counties, member libraries must serve anyone living within the borders of the Central Kansas Library System. These libraries can request the same information for proving identity as any citizen in their own town. |
