“Library Filtering Bill Passes Washington Senate”
From the article, “”Filters are far from perfect,” said the librarian, Karl Marcuson. “I’m not completely opposed to filters, but my position is that they should be voluntary. For example, a parent could come in and say, ‘I want a filter for the computer my child is using.’ That is what larger systems, like Multnomah County and Fort Vancouver, are doing…Marcuson said the library already asks patrons to use discretion when viewing Internet sites. The computers are near the reference desk, in full view of passers-by. But library policy doesn’t bar visits to certain Internet sites, he said.”
