policy
The C.A.P. computers are available for the use of the general public. The following rules are designed to maximize that access while ensuring that the sensibilities and rights of all users are defended. All users will sign to indicate agreement with this policy.
Access to C.A.P. computers is free. All users will sign in prior to using a C.A.P. computer and sign out when finished.
All users under 18 years of age must have the policy agreement signed by a parent or guardian.
C.A.P. computers will not be used for activities deemed by the Champlain Township Library Board to be illegal or offensive. This includes the writing, reading or downloading of hate literature, pornography, racist comments, offensive language and harassing material.
Printing of documents is available at $0.25 per page.
Sessions will be limited to one hour per user. Priority will be given to those who have reserved a specific time slot.
The Champlain Public Library and the Champlain Municipal Council are not responsible for any charges incurred by use of the Internet. We will not be held responsible for the security and confidentiality of any transaction, including e-commerce.
Users are advised that sending credit card numbers, actual names and addresses over the Internet can be dangerous. Caution is advised.
Users are not to install or run any software on C.A.P. computers, including Internet downloads which have not been installed by the library staff.
Users are not to invade the privacy of other users by any means, including the transmission or use of programs designed to infiltrate or take over other computers, hacking or harassment.
In the event of malicious damage, costs will be assessed and the offending user held accountable for the total cost of these repairs.
If a user does not comply with these rules, the penalty for a first offense is a 1 month suspension from computer use and, if there is a second offense, a lifetime ban from the library will be imposed. An individual has the right to appeal this decision in writing to the Champlain Township Library Board within 15 days of the suspension or ban.
