Qué contiene
Resumen con IA Currently, schools and public libraries are allowed to use certain materials that might otherwise be considered obscene if they are used for education or art. This bill would remove those special protections for libraries, schools, and educational programs. Removing this rule would change how obscenity laws apply to materials used in these places.

7, which relates to obscenity exemptions for public libraries and educational institutions.7 currently provides that nothing in Code chapter 728 (obscenity) prohibits the use of appropriate material for educational purposes in any accredited school, any public library, or in any educational program in which a minor is participating.7 further provides that Code chapter 728 does not prohibit the attendance of minors at an exhibition or display of art works or the use of any materials in any public library. 1 defines “obscene material”, which includes material the average person, taking the material as a whole and applying contemporary community standards with respect to what is suitable material for minors, would find appeals to the prurient interest and is patently offensive; and the material, taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, scientific, political, or artistic value.
