Questions:
Does the mayor have any experience at work or in the home with the
internet?  If yes, what about the blocking software?
How much power does the mayor have over BPL's decisions concerning other
information resources--does he attend collection development meetings, for
instance and put in his two cents about what the library will and will
not buy in print form?
Is it possible to have two types of terminals, one for kids with
the blocking software, one for adults without?
Has BPL considered using polarizer screens to at least increase privacy
for those sitting directly in front of the terminal?
