Despite the edict that Phoenix public libraries will now filter all computers, the town of Wickenburg (50 miles north of Phoenix) is refusing to go along with it. Story from the Wickenburg Sun located in a retirement community in the Sonoran desert.
The library board voted last week against giving the Town Council its support on the issue. Library board Vice President Helen Dudley moved “that the library board take no action now regarding a request for support of the censorship action taken by the Phoenix City Council. “It’s our opinion that we have no problem in the Wickenburg library with persons using our computers to secure pornography,” she added. “Furthermore, it is our opinion that the Wickenburg library staff is very capable of monitoring the computer room.”
