Book Synopsis Mandatory Internet Filtering in Public Libraries by : Barbara H. Smith
Book excerpt: The Children's Internet Protection Act has significant implications on the role that public libraries play in providing patrons with access to information. The purposes of this dissertation are to 1) further public understanding of the role of the public library; 2) analyze the legal and practical aspects of implementing mandatory Internet filtering in public libraries; and 3) determine if the CIPA is capable of doing what Congress is asking of it.
