The library is responsible only for information pertaining directly to the library and its services. It does not control the availability of external connections to other computer systems which may change unpredictably. Not all sources on the Internet provide accurate, complete, or current information. Parents of minor children are responsible for supervising their children's use of the library's Internet resources. Individual assistance on using the library's Internet connection is available upon request at the reference desk.
Many staff are able to answer questions and offer suggestions on where to search for information.
However, library staff do not provide in-depth training in the use of the Internet or personal electronic mail. Library staff schedule group orientation sessions on using the library's system to access information in the library catalog and on the Internet. However, customers using the library's computers to send and receive personal messages over the Internet are advised that the privacy of those communications is not guaranteed. As a precaution, users should avoid posting personal information such as home addresses, phone numbers, and credit card numbers to websites or any unknown Internet users. Library electronic resources should be used in accordance with the ethical standards of the library.
