Computer Use Policy
Reese Library computers are provided for research by Augusta State University students, faculty and staff. Community members may use the computers in the Reference Room for one session, not to exceed two hours per day. ASU faculty, staff and students have priority on these stations and community members may be displaced to accommodate them.
Additional guidelines:
1. ASU students, faculty and staff have priority on all public-access computers. When other ASU users are waiting, use is restricted to one hour. Research for classes has priority over other uses of the computers, such as email.
2. Community members may work on a computer in the Reference Room for up to two hours. Registration at the Reference Desk is required.
3. Children are not allowed use of the community computers in the library unless they are in high school and have Reese Library passes signed by their high school teacher or media specialist. High school students without passes must be signed in by a parent or legal guardian.
4. Any harassing, illegal, or in any way disruptive use of the computers will not be tolerated. Violators of this policy will be asked to leave the computer area immediately.
