While we know that this is not always possible, you should be aware that our staff cannot control or censor any patron's Internet sessions. This does not mean that we don't want your child to visit the library. We can help your child find information, and our computers access not only the Internet but also the On-Line Public Access Catalog. As a parent you need to be made aware of the possibility that your child may choose and select, or see and read materials that you could find offensive. Also be aware that any person accessing or viewing inappropriate sites will be asked to close that site and select a more appropriate one.
Every effort is made to insure that the selected sites are age and interest appropriate.
There are basically two kinds of devices that limit the sites that can be visited. One type blocks particular sites from viewing. The second device blocks sites by words. We try to block particular sites that could be offensive to some of our users. Please be aware, however, that filtering devices are available only on machines designated for children's use and may not block all material you find offensive.
