Children under age 14 should have a signed parental permission form (available at the circulation desk) from a parent or guardian. Programs and files may not be copied or downloaded to the hard drive. If you think you may want to save files, please bring a flash drive, or you may purchase one at the circulation desk.

An educational AWE computer (not connected to internet) for preschoolers and early elementary children is located in the children’s area. Parents are encouraged to sit and help their child while they’re on the computer.
