All Internet users must read the Guidelines for Internet Use and sign the Internet Use Agreement before using the Internet. Internet use is available on a first come, first served basis. No advanced reservations will be accepted. An Internet Pass will be checked out to the patron for one hour of access. The time may be extended at the discretion of the library staff.
Some branches provide Internet check-outs of fifteen minutes at express machines.
The Internet Pass must be displayed at the Internet station. Unlike materials that are purchased for the Library using expert selection criteria, the Internet is an unregulated medium to which selection criteria cannot always be applied. The Library has attempted to solve this matter by listing sites that do meet, to the extent possible, the criteria used in selecting other library materials. Library staff will assist patrons in use of the Library s Home Page and Library selected sites. However, the Library is not responsible for the content, accuracy, validity, availability, and quality of sites not linked to its home page or given in Library publications.
