DALEY COLLEGE LIBRARY-COMPUTER POLICY

The Daley College Library provides a number of terminals with Internet access. The following rules are to be observed by all students. Students whose behavior is inappropriate will be asked to leave the library. Library computers are for use only by Daley College and other City College students. Be prepared to show your current validated student I.D. to library staff upon request. Students must sign in on the log sheets prior to use. The time allotted for use is ½ hour per session. A librarian may, at any time, ask you to vacate a station if they need to use it. A printer is available for the Internet terminals. It is located at the circulation desk. Any materials that you print will go there. Inform the circulation desk staff when you have printed. They will retrieve your documents for you. Please note:
