Hawaii State Public Library Sytem Rules and Policies
does indeed prohibit "display of offensive images on internet terminals" ... didn't the drafters run it by a lawyer?
Disruptive behavior. Any behavior deemed disruptive by the library staff shall be prohibited at all times. If the library customer continues to display disruptive behavior after being warned by the branch library manager or designee, the customer shall be requested to leave the library until the disruptive behavior has ceased. Prohibited disruptive behavior is that which unduly interferes with another library customer’s quiet enjoyment and use of the public library. Examples are, e.g., fighting; excessive and/or loud noise; display of offensive images on internet terminals; offensive body odor. (8-201.1-13)
