In short, a couple of librarians sit around before hours with a black Sharpie marker and draw briefs and tops on to the natives. They will even draw black boxes to cover animal coitus in said magazines.
No, I am not joking. The truth is far more funny.
Also, and this is my opinion, it makes it dirtier somehow. I am not sure I can explain how, but it does. Something about some fussy blue haired old bat scribbling out naughty bits with a Sharpie... What might Jung say about that?

As a professional in the library field I call shenanigans Doc. You allege you've come across these altered photographs and claim they were comitted by librarians looking to protect the children. No other way they could have gotten there? Certainly no one from the public is able to lay fingers on these sacred magazines at any time right?
Of course it makes more sense as a librarian to spend a couple of hours altering a photograph to make it "acceptable to western standards" than doing the unthinkable and ultimately more cost effective solution like not carrying a magazine deemed inappropriate for the collection. :rolleyes:
