Are you talking about proxying connections from library computers? For computers in the library, how does a proxy help with privacy? How is a person linked to a web request? Login records? Video footage? If either of those, wouldn't purging the records be the simplest way to provide privacy?
Sorry if I'm being dumb, but I don't understand how proxying helps privacy in this context.
