Summary

The bill eliminates Section 728.7, which currently shields public libraries, accredited schools and other educational programs from Iowa’s obscenity statutes. Without this exemption, those institutions could be subject to prosecution for providing material deemed obscene. The change aligns library and school material handling with the state’s general obscenity laws.
