Pottsboro ISD produces library catalog and book acquisition records four business days after LION request

On the morning of June 4, 2026, four business days after LION filed POTTSBOROISD-PIA-001, Pottsboro Independent School District produced records responsive to the request. The district’s cover email attached nine PDFs — three campus library catalogs (Pottsboro Elementary, Pottsboro Middle School, and Pottsboro High School) and six 2025–26 book acquisition lists (two per campus) — and included a hyperlink labeled “Power of Pages Grant Book Acquisition” pointing to additional acquisition material the district said was “too large to upload as a folder.”

The reply came from June Hendrickson at the Pottsboro ISD main office, writing on behalf of Superintendent Kevin Matthews, the district’s designated Public Information Coordinator for Texas Public Information Act requests. Under Government Code Chapter 552, a public body has 10 business days to respond to a request; the Pottsboro production arrived inside that window.

LION’s May 29 request had identified Excel (.xlsx), CSV, or the library management system’s native export format as the preferred delivery formats for the catalog. The district produced the three catalog files as PDFs. LION’s scope, completeness, and format review of the production is ongoing.
