    Abstract
    In upholding the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA), the U.S. Supreme Court has forced public libraries to face difficult issues about filtering Internet content. The implementation of filters creates a range of practical issues for libraries and also raises myriad research issues related to the effects of CIPA on public library services and on access to Internet-based information in public libraries. Using a multimethod, iterative research strategy, this article explores selected areas related to filtering that may affect the provision of Internet content and services in public libraries. This study presents preliminary data about the impact of CIPA on public libraries and offers a perspective of what research is necessary to provide a better understanding of the impacts of CIPA and to determine what research would need to be conducted for potential future legal challenges to the application of CIPA in public libraries.

    Abstract
    Academic libraries have been on the leading edge in the provision of services, navigation aids, and user training for the Internet and the emerging National Research and Education Network (NREN). Yet empirical research and synthesis of librarians' experience with electronic networking is scarce. Reports selected findings from a recently completed study that examined the impact of the national networked environment on academic libraries. Its goals was to investigate the roles of academic libraries and librarians in the national networking context. Summarizes the study activities and key issues and findings from data analysis

    Abstract
    Describes research in the progress at Syracuse Univ.'s School of Information Studies that is invesitigating the role of public libraries in developing and exploiting the next generation of national networks as presently embodied in the Internet/NREN. The study will determine present knowledge and use of the Internet by public library leaders; identify barriers to Internet use; explore evolving roles for public libraries in the rapidly developing networked environment; and recommended specific strategies and policies for public libraries to pursue to take better advantage of Internet/NREN information resources and services
