If a patron (under the age of 16) is being disruptive and interring with the use of the library by others or is deemed by the library staff to be at risk of being harmed or causing harm, an effort will be made to contact the responsible parent/guardian via text, telephone and/or email. If the parent/guardian does not come to the library to pick up the said patron within 30 minutes of staff’s request to do so, the Sherriff’s Office will be called to take the patron until the parent or guardian can be reached.

Patrons will be limited to one half hour per computer session when another patron is waiting and to 2 hours of use per day.
Patron’s need a valid Saunders County library card to use the computers and iPads. Use by individuals without a valid library card is at the discretion of library staff.
