family computer labs

ROWAN PUBLIC LIBRARY FAMILY COMPUTER LAB PROCEDURES

The Rowan Public Library aims to provide computer access to all of its patrons.  For this reason the branches have been equipped with Family Computer Labs in the Children’s area.  These computers are primarily for children ages 15 and younger and parents of children 8 years or under.

1. To help ensure that a child will have a pleasant and safe experience while visiting the library, Children 8 years of age or younger shall be “attended” while in the library (See Unattended Children’s Policy).  This parent or caretaker is responsible for the behavior of the child in his/her care while in the library.
    
2. All children 11 years or younger must use the computers in the Family Lab.
   
3. Children ages 12-15 may use the computers in the Adult Lab, MAC Lab or the Family Lab. 
   
4. Parents or the responsible party 16 years of age or older of children 8 years and younger who need to be attended while in the library will be allowed to use the computers in the Family Lab. 
   
5. If an adult or person over 16 years of age does not have a child 8 years or younger with them, they will not be allowed to use the computers in the Family Lab and must use the designated computers in the Adult area.

money matters

From Pam--

Please remember that if a patron hands you a torn bill – DO NOT ACCEPT IT!  I have a 5 dollar bill that is only 2/3rd complete.
Thanks!
