It's my impression that materials such as Playboy are kept in places
such as the Rare Book room to protect the magazine from the reader,
not the reader from the magazine. (Playboy is prone to be stolen; a
vulnerable not shared by GIF files).

Perhaps a real-life librarian can set Mr. Greely and me straight (just
send e-mail to caf-talk@eff.org).
