Legal Issues w/ Social Networks• There are many different bills being
introduced to limit social networking, but the biggest is DOPA – DOPA would prohibit certain funding to libraries if
those libraries didn’t provide technology to protect minors against items “harmful to minors” including protecting them against “access…without parental authorization to a commercial social networking website or chat room.”
![Page 19: Web 2.0 And You!](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062613/54577533af795998788b50eb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Legal Issues w/ Social Communities
• ALA reaction against DOPA– YALSA (Young Adult Library Services Assoc.)
• DOPA terminology too broad• There is value in interactive web technologies• Education, not blocking access• Local decision making, not federal, is the key• Would restrict technology needed by other members
of the community

Legal Issues w/ Social Communities
• As for online predators, article in Feb 2008 issue of Pediatrics, that asked 1588 students age 10-15, found:– Online sexual solicitation happens is in chat rooms and
on IM– 79% of predators are open about age and wants– Of those students who were solicited, 4% occurred in
social networking spaces– Assumptions about online interpersonal victimization in
social networking sites do not seem consistent with data
![Page 21: Web 2.0 And You!](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062613/54577533af795998788b50eb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Cons about Social Networking• Will these sites remain?
• Do they make us look unprofessional?

• How many sites outside the library are we sending people to get information about us and is it too much?
