McCain Bill Would Impose Restrictions on Schools. Are Libraries Next? Senator John McCain (R-AZ) has outlined priorities for the second session of the 105th Congress. Concerning the Universal Service provisions of the Telecom bill, McCain says "There is no assurance that children using these subsidized Internet services in school will not be able to access indecent material available on the Web." McCain will introduce legislation to make sure that schools receiving federally-established Internet subsidies limit students access to indecent Internet material in the classroom.

Aspiring Young Writers Find a Place Online Often I receive questions from librarians on where to direct
kids who want to write or get published. Outside of Rasberry Press or the Landmarks
contest (I have info. on both of these if you need it), there were few choices. However I
just discovered a neat place online - go visit! http://www.realkids.com/club.shtml Items submitted by: |
