Richard Webber ordered the Salem (Mo.) Public Library to allow its patrons access to pagan and Wiccan websites that were originally disallowed by the library's filtering software. The Associated Press reports Webber's decision Tuesday afternoon ends a three-year battle between a patron and the small town's only public library.<br /><br />Tony Rothert, the ACLU's attorney, issued a statement to the AP Wednesday. He said, "Even libraries that are required by federal law to install filtering software to block certain sexually explicit content should never use software to prevent patrons from learning about different cultures."Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.com
