I agree with Sarah Field and Mr. Wise. There are many quality books and audiovisual materials--fiction and nonfiction--that are written from an Orthodox viewpoint. To exclude these titles simply because they are "Orthodox" in nature is to deprive libraries of what could be valuable additions to any Jewish library collection. (I may be a bit late in adding my two cents to this discussion, but my son Ari got married on February 13 to a wonderful girl named Yocheved and my mind has been elsewhere!)
