<div>So how does this fit with the secretary of state's election rules for public employees. Is it censorship or simply following the election rules?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm not saying they are correct in removing information, but was it info or the pro/con info that perhaps would be in violation. Just wondering...</div>

<p dir="ltr">The viewpoint from EveryLibrary and OLA: Important Update: upon our review this evening, the library website still lacks any information about the upcoming vote, what appears on the ballot, and what the plan is for the community if it passes
or fails. It is not just news articles and pro comments that have been removed. This was as of 9/29/16 at 4:33 p.m.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'm suggesting that people might want to read more about Commissioner Boice's position on the formation of a library district. Here is one piece that popped up in my Facebook news feed:

<span style="color:rgb(31,73,125)">The information that you received regarding the removal of voter information is inaccurate. There was a link from the library’s webpage to news articles and letters to the editor regarding the proposed library taxing district
in Douglas County. However, only links to “pro” articles and letters to the editor in the paper were included while no links to “con” arguments were included. This is representative of a partial perspective which is contrary to State Law. The website was
temporarily disrupted while the IT department at the library was asked to either remove the link to the news stories, or modify it to be all inclusive. There was no suppression of information by the commissioners. The steps taken were in an effort to create
exactly what you are advocating for, a free and fair election by an informed electorate. Please don’t make false accusations without verifying the facts in the future.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
