The Advocate has A Story on The filter war that says It\’s just not nice to pick a fight with a librarian.
They also say libraries aren\’t the sorts of places where folks are going to go looking for smut, and you can find nudity in National Geographic if you try, and this doesn\’t mean we should banish such things from our public libraries.
\”The world is a blend of that which we like and find comfortable, and that which makes us cringe. Eliminate the squirmy parts, and what you are left with isn\’t the world. It\’s a reflection of yourself, your strengths, and your weaknesses. A filtered world is not true. Librarians, it seems, have more interest in truth than politicians. Not that we\’ve ever thought our politicians capable of obscuring the truth, of course.\”
