"But We're Family Friendly Already": How to Respond to the Challenge.

Harmon, Charles; Symons, Ann K.

American Libraries, v27 n7 p60,62,64 Aug 1996

Outlines the Family Friendly Libraries (FFL) charter and how its aims challenge equal and unrestricted access to information as mandated by the American Library Association's Library Bill of Rights. Discussions include how FFL might hurt libraries, how libraries can "keep things positive" by promoting services that FFL can support, and how to address challenges in policy statements. (LAM)
