Maine School and Library Network Web Filtering

From website:  As a stipulation of the Child Information Protection Act, all organizations receiving e-rate assistance for internet access must have a web filter in place to stop minors from viewing detrimental websites accidentally. We provide the OpenDNS filter to all MSLN members.

Member sites by default have a minimum filter turned on (configured to block Adware, Alcohol, Dating, Drugs, Gambling,Hate/Discrimination, Weapons, Nudity, Sexuality, Pornography, and proxy bypassers), however access and customization of the filter is then given over to the site's TC who is solely responsible for what is blocked and not blocked, including the above categories. All requests for websites to be unblocked or blocked must be passed on to the person controlling the filter: your site's TC. If you do not know who this is we would be happy to give you their contact information. MSLN will not touch a filter without the express permission of the TC requesting assistance.
