Library blasted over public computer limit

\”A man who calls himself a rabbi complained Monday to Orangeburg County Council that local public library officials are denying him computer access, keeping him out of board meetings and discriminating against him for being Jewish.\”

\”Dismissing the criticism from someone who has \”caused more aggravation,\” Library Director Paula Paul staunchly defended the library board\’s new policy, implemented Monday, that imposes a two-hour limit on computer use.\”

\”Several people monopolize the computers day in and day out on a regular basis,\” Paul said. \”If someone is there using the computer every day, almost all day long, there\’s something wrong. It\’s there to serve the entire public, not just a few.\” (from The Times and Democrat)
