Orland Park library OKs compromise on computer porn policy

“Orland Park’s public library will continue to give adults unfiltered Internet access, including the ability to view pornography on computers, but a policy change also would give librarians discretion if patrons complain. Library trustees unanimously approved changes Wednesday to forbid “viewing of material which may be disturbing or offensive to others within viewing distance.” Library director Mary Weimar said that could apply to pornography.” (via chicagotribune.com)
