We are glad to help you and your children find books and information,
both from our collection of books, our databases, the Internet, and
from libraries across the state. |
| In keeping with recent state law, library policy requires that all children under
the age of 12 be accompanied by an adult or a mature adolescent who is
responsible for their behavior in the library. |
| All parents should pick up a copy
of the Unattended Child Policy at the main desk, which outlines our policy
regarding parental responsibility for children in and around the library. |
| All of our patrons----of whatever age---are welcome to use or view or borrow
all of our resources. |
| The computers in the adult reading rooms do not have filters; the computers
in the children's room, if and when they have Internet, will have access
to limited sites. |
Many parents believe that if we have a resource in the library, its is "safe"
for their children. Still, every family has its own set of values and concerns, and
each child, depending on his or her age, maturity, and temperament is different.
| Only you, not the library, can decide what your children or teenagers can read,
borrow, view, or use at the library. |
If you have middle school or teenage children, and you're worried about what they
read, view, or borrow accompany them to the library or talk to them about your concerns.
| Please warn them about the hazards of giving out personal information on the Internet.
Talk to us as well: We'll be glad to help you learn more about Internet safety and help you to find the right
books and resources for your family. | | |
