We use
Library Guardian, and for the most part we are satisfied with it. It gives
us a way to allow both filtered and unfiltered access without having to set
aside specific terminals for filtered access. Everything is encoded on the
user's card. It also has some handy reports that we can use to see how
many patrons have chosen each level of access, how many total minutes are used
per access level or particular terminal and what the average length of an
Internet session is.
On the
down side, we have had a few problems as they changed the way they handled
filtering. It slowed the system down temporarily and caused all of our
carefully chosen settings to reset themselves to a default setting. But
our users haven't complained, and they seem satisfied with the
system.
