Particularly, we wish to promote children's interest in learning, and having adequate reference resources to meet the needs of the community. Access to the Internet is included because it is an excellent reference tool for current information about a wide variety of topics. All users of the Public Access Internet Workstation are expected to use these resources in a responsible, ethical manner consistent with the educational and informational purpose of a library. All users are expected to follow these basic rules and regulations. Because of the presence on the Internet of materials which are potentially offensive or inappropriate for children, all individuals under the age of 18 MUST have written permission to use the Public Access Internet Workstation in the Clinton Public Library.
Extensions are at the discretion of library staff.
There will be no more than two people at the workstation without parental supervision. The Clinton Public Library assumes no responsiblity for the use of the Internet by children. Just as libraries do not vouch for or endorse the viewpoints of written materials in the collection, they do not do so for electronic information. Selection policies which serve to govern the library's purchase for written materials may not apply to materials accessed electronically. It is the responsiblity of the user or parent to determine what is appropriate.
