Hi Shawn,
We recently updated our Collection Development Policy to include this statement:
The library will only formally reconsider a specific title from its collection once in any eighteen-month period.
Subsequent requests for reconsideration will be answered without following the full process unless specific new
information or insight is provided in a subsequent request which would, in the library's opinion, prompt further action.
You can see our whole policy at https://www.bcpl.org/docs/library/collection-development-policy.pdf

Subject: Multiple Challenges to Same Item
Hello!
Does anyone have a moratorium on challenges/complaints? Like if someone challenges *Gender Queer* and it's kept in the collection it can't be challenged again for X time?
My director is interested in other libraries' policies in regards to this.
