The library's Internet access is intended primarily as an informational and educational resource. The Internet is a global electronic network and there is no single government body that controls its users or content. Jefferson-Madison Regional Library cannot control either the availability or accuracy of information links that often change rapidly and unpredictably. Not all sources on the Internet provide accurate, complete or current information.
Internet users are responsible for critically evaluating the validity of information.
Jefferson-Madison Regional Library cannot guarantee Internet viewing privacy, nor can the library guarantee the privacy of information sent or received over the Internet. However, library staff will take practical steps to minimize the inadvertent viewing of Internet sessions by others. Library staff is authorized to monitor Internet use as needed to determine compliance with library policies. Library staff is not in a position to supervise juveniles' use of the Internet. As with other library materials, restriction of a juvenile's access to the Internet is the responsibility of the parent or legal guardian.
