Internet Filtering

Public computers connected to the Internet are filtered to screen images that are obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit or otherwise harmful to minors in accordance with the Federal Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) and the Colorado’s Internet Protection in Public Libraries Act.

No filtering software is 100% accurate. Filters may falsely block material that is appropriate in a public library setting or they may fail to block access to illegal or objectionable material. The Library does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy of its Internet filters.

Adults age 17 years and older may request that staff disable the filtering software during their Internet session.
