===''Adamson v. Minneapolis Public Library''===
''[https://web.archive.org/web/20080530034356/http://filteringfacts.org/legal/adamson/ Adamson v. Minneapolis Public Library]'' was a civil complaint of 23 March 2003 by a dozen librarians against the library's management for a claimed failure to prevent sexual harassment over many years by library patrons having unlimited use of library computers for accessing pornography.  The case followed an [[Equal Employment Opportunity Commission|EEOC]] determination on 23 May 2001 that "the Respondent did subject the Charging Party to sexually hostile work environment. This is in violation of Title VII of the [[Civil Rights Act of 1964]], as amended."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Carter |first=Bobbie J. |date=May 23, 2001 |title=EEOC Determination.
