Internet Filtering

The Walla Walla County Rural Library employs internet filters on all of our computers at all of our branches. The filters are present to filter web sites based on content as required by the Children's Internet Protection Act.

We understand that no filtering software is perfect: some unoffensive web sites are blocked and some offensive web sites may not be blocked. At the Walla Walla County Rural Library we strive to deploy the Internet Filter in the most accurate and fair manner as possible, protecting your right to access information freely.
