"A LIBRARY'S CORE MISSION is to provide free and full access to a world
of =
ideas. The most exciting thing to happen in libraries in the last decade =
has been to see that mission extended to include access to the Internet. =
New library services, funded by generous federal support, have made more =
Internet access available to more and more people. Now, those same sources =
may force public libraries to censor Internet access."
