Some libraries are doing things like this as a form of protest. The law doesn’t require such a stringent process as this, but that’s irrelevant. What’s relevant is the law is infringing on freedom of speech by regulating libraries’ content.
I’m sure the very people who put out these laws are going to be extremely bothered by libraries preventing kids from accessing cheap culture and education
True enough, but I think their aim is at citizens moreso than politicians. I would wager a lot of average folks probably weren’t even aware of the law being passed, stuff like this brings it more attention. Is it effective? No idea, I don’t live in Idaho. I wouldn’t be surprised it isn’t that effective, given how conservative most of Idaho is. But, I can respect libraries from at least trying to do something about it.
I don’t think the people who vote for this actually care. They’ve been told that every other book in them libruhries have them gay sex things, and that’s enough for them to cheer for it.
