I found this article to be an interesting comparative study on how CIPA works and fails in public libraries and schools. The article raises several thought provoking questions as to why public libraries are given the same kinds of guidelines/treatments as school libraries, when the end users and missions can differ wildly.
I also found the research conducted on filtering issues to be particularly valuable, as well as the information about the number of libraries that are NOT CIPA compliant on purpose.
Here is the citation for the article:

Happy Reading!
