Abstract
This report provides the results of a baseline survey of safe internet practices in libraries for children and young adults around the world. This survey was created by members of IFLA’s Libraries for Children and Young Adults (C&YA) Section, with the goal of finding out: What would help librarians create and maintain a safer online world for children and young people? Since 2004, Safer Internet Day has been organised annually and is observed in about 200 countries. The campaign calls upon all stakeholders to join together to make the internet a safer and better place for all, and especially for children and young people. There is no clear definition of "safer internet" on the InSafe website, but the site states: "From cyberbullying to social networking to digital identity, each year Safer Internet Day aims to raise awareness of emerging online issues and current concerns."
