We do allow music and data CDs to be used in our public computers.  The system is configured not to allow executables (program files) to be run.

Hi,



What is your Library's policy regarding a patron's ability to read data stored on their own cds at your public computers? Also do you allow patrons to listen to music on their own cds at the public computers? We do supply headsets for tutorials, etc.



Thanks--any information you supply will be shared with the group.

Regards,

Janet Fine
