hey everyone,
since it seems that these types of questions get asked over and over by
many of us newcomers... and some of us oldtimers...
do you think we could convince OPLIN or one of the regionals to compile
all of this information on a website that we can refer to whenever we
need it?

We aren't using it here at CCPL but I am using Cybersitter at my home
for my children and it allows you to easily turn off and on blocking and
you can even schedule when filtering is enabled or disabled.

They have a business version which also can be controlled via a server.
This is the only product I have found so far that easily does it on a
workstation level but can be controlled from a server.=20

	I'm the technology coordinator for the Carnegie Public Libraries
in Fayette County. In response to the upcoming filtering legislation
we're looking into adding filtering to our network. We currently have a
NT network and a Sonicwall Firewall appliance.  I was wondering what
filtering solutions other libraries are using successfully. My biggest
concern is the easy of use for my staff. The one big difficultly we see
is inconvenience of switching filtering off and on for "Adults" by
request. =20

	Also, our library is looking to upgrade our servers to a Windows
2000/03 systems.  I'd like to know if there are any good network
companies in the Columbus/Dayton area that are familiar with Library
networking needs, and filtering.

	Any Help would be great. Please email me directly.
