Dear All,
We are looking again at our public Internet filtering and wonder how
others are managing their filtering systems.
All feedback is welcome. I can summarise for the list and will ensure
responses remain anonymous if requested.
Does your service deploy webfiltering software to public access
machines?
If so, which product?
Who decides filtering policy - Library Service? Other Council dept?
User Categories: do you make use of user categories? eg. child,
teenager, adult?
Where does responsibility lie for managing, blocking/unblocking,
updating filtering policies etc. Is it with Library Staff or IT support
staff?
If library staff, how much time is spent dealing with filtering issues?
Does any service not employ public webfiltering?
Any other comments regarding webfiltering?
Regards
Rob
