Washington library systems have this as well. It is a public library. In our system the kids under 18 must be assigned to a filtered computer.
All 'over 18' computers have screens that are visible only to those using the computer.

If we start taking out certain literatures from our library and deny public access to all information, we will lay foundations that could one day remove all religious literature as well.

The human body is not to be viewed naked by someone you aren't married to.

It's very telling that the article is about pornography and the first thing you fantasize about is men masturbating...

Kids are blocked from using those computers. They're 18+ only. There are different computers with parental blocks in them for children.
