Human Intervention Not Helping in R-rated Borrowing
LINK: Theaters and video stores usually require an age of 17 or older to see or rent an R-Rated release, unless there is parental permission. But something altogether different is going on in some local libraries.
"We sent two 11-year-old girls to the DVD and video section in this Boston library.
Both picked out "R" rated movies and then checked them out.

"Did a librarian say, 'Hey wait a second you don't look like you're 17?'"
Gillian, 11-year-old
"No."
Jonathan Hall, 7News
"They just said go ahead?"
Gillian, 11-year-old
"Yeah."
Jonathan Hall, 7News
"Did anybody ask, 'Do your parents know that you're renting this rated "R" movie?'"
Gillian, 11-year-old
"Nope."
And it doesn't just happen once!"
A robotic device like an allCIRC can prevent these types of issues from occurring - it obeys your ILS rules every time......
