Working in companies that have some Haram activities : computer administrator of book seller

Fatawa Question

AL Salam Alikom I work as computer system administrator. I take care of computers that handle websites on the Internet. Recently I got a job offer from a website that works as a book retailer in the UK. They sell all kinds of books. Some of these books could be against Islam, or books that contain pornographic materials. I am not sure if I should take the job or not. I will not be handling the books directly or engaged in the selling process. But I will be maintaining the computer systems that take a place in this. I really need to make up my mind. It's a great job and career move for me. But I don't want any Haram money in my life. Please advise. Jazakum Allahu Khairan.
