Hi Everyone,

 

Thank you for your responses regarding patron accessing cds (data and music) at public computers.  I received 14 responses and of the these 8 allowed complete access to cds and 6 did not allow access.  The reason for not allowing access to cds reflected security needs.  Again, thank you for your help. 

Regards,

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.
