The document summarizes the poetry collection of the Whitefish Bay Public Library. It describes the library's location and demographics, staffing, and collection development policy. While the poetry collection is extensive, the circulation statistics are low. The document considers whether parts of the collection should be discarded but ultimately decides against deselection due to the value of representing different voices and cultures. A budget is allocated to purchasing additional poetry titles focused on popular and diverse authors.
