We're absolutely thrilled to be collaborating with the community libraries in this way and hope to continue the program as long as there is a need. Jessica has graduated and left the area, but I am indebted to my new graduate assistant, Sally Quiroz, who has been helping manage the program (and teaching most of the Spanish classes), and the librarians and graduate students in library science who volunteer their time to help teach the classes.

The library board was wrestling with the recent court decision on CIPA (Children's Internet Protection Act) which restricted federal funding for Internet access to libraries that refused to use filtering software.
