Librarian: Filters Are Fab

Here\’s A Wired Story on David Ewick The Fulton County Public Library Director, who testified Wednesday that he has no problem shielding adult and minor patrons from material that\’s entirely legal and unlikely to offend anyone.

\”I don\’t think that he was doing something politically incorrect,\” says Judith Krug, director of the ALA\’s Office for Intellectual Freedom. \”I think that what other librarians believe is that he was violating the basic precepts of the profession. Most librarians believe that their role is to bring people together with the information they want.\”
