INTERNET AND COMPUTER USE POLICY
The Crook County Library System supports intellectual freedom and does not control or censor databases or services available on the public computers or through the Internet.
The primary purpose of Internet connectivity is to provide access for all Crook County residents to other computer systems throughout the world for information and research.
Unlawful use of the Internet is prohibited.
Access to chat rooms is prohibited.
Access to pornographic or sexually explicit materials is prohibited.
Failure to comply with these rules may result in the revocation of your computer privileges for a period of time to be determined by the Library Director or Head Librarian.
Parents/guardians concerned with their childs access to the Internet must accompany their child to the library to enforce their parental right to censor information. Library staff assumes no responsibility for childrens use of library computers and the Internet.
Some of the most current and up-to-date sources of information today are only available via the Internet. However, as with any other source of information, the accuracy of the information should be evaluated as to its source of authority.
Network users are advised that some systems contain material that may be considered offensive, illegal, and/or inaccurate.
