Provides that certain sex offenders who are released on parole or sentenced to probation may not enter public, association or free libraries

This bill prohibits certain sex offenders on parole or probation from entering public, association, or free libraries. It specifically targets individuals convicted of crimes against minors (under 18) or designated as Level 3 sex offenders. As a mandatory condition of release, these offenders must avoid all such libraries unless authorized in writing by their parole/probation officer and library administrator for limited purposes like being a student, employee, or having a family member enrolled. The restriction applies only during library hours when minors are present at the facility.
