Proposed Guidelines for Installing Library Web Filtering

The Center for Democracy and Technology issued “Proposed Guidelines for Libraries Installing Filtering under Federal Law” during the American Library Association’s Midwinter Meeting, underway in San Diego.

  • Version 1.0 of Principles for CIPA-Mandated Filtering in Public Libraries “are intended to help libraries that are required to install Internet filtering software under the Childrens Internet Protection Act do so in a manner that promotes free speech and robust access to information. CDT invites public comment on the principles.”
