PUBLIC LIBRARY
All patrons under age 18 must have an INTERNET PERMISSION FORM signed by parent/guardian on file.
Patrons will sign in at the computer table and will receive a PIN ticket from a staff member to access our system; the timer program will allow 90 minutes of computer use. To be fair to everyone--ONLY ONE TICKET PER PATRON EACH DAY!
Staff members are NOT able to provide instruction in computer usage; staff assistance is limited to log in/log out and printing help.
Various reference manuals are available in the computer area for patron use. Informal basic computer instruction will be offered from time to time.
NOBODY is permitted to change any settings on any library computer. Please remember these are PUBLIC computers.
NO PERSONAL MATERIALS may be saved on the hard drives. All personal materials must be saved on your own disk or flash drive.
