Editorial Supports AK Bill Giving Parents Access to Records

Here’s an editorial from the Juneau Empire supporting Alaska Senate Bill 269 which would give parents the right to see their minor children’s library records. According to the commentator, the bill arose not out of a desire for parents to snoop, but because “some parents simply complained that they couldn’t find out when their children’s books were due and couldn’t pick up books that had been put on hold by their children.”
