• No more than 2 people are allowed per terminal unless authorized by staff.
• Food and beverages may not be consumed at Library computer terminals.
• Save your work. We recommend that you save your work to a flash drive or email it to yourself as an attachment. For safety and privacy, files and data are erased between computer users. Work cannot be saved to the computer hard drive. Your files will not be available on the library computer after you log-out. The Library is not responsible for any lost or damaged work on a flash drive or other storage medium. 
• Only Library provided software may be employed. Users may not alter or damage hardware, software or data or in any way interfere with, disrupt or degrade the network. No downloading of software is permitted. 
•  The library provides free access to the Internet. The library does not monitor or control the material content available on the Internet, just as it does not limit shelf access to print materials. While some of the information is of high quality, inevitably some material may be less accurate, authoritative, appropriate, or may be difficult to retrieve. 
• The Library is not responsible for any liability, damages, or expenses resulting from the use or misuse of technology equipment, its connection to other electronic devices, or data loss resulting from its use.
• MPL Internet access shall not be used to receive, send, or view material in which the content or meaning is likely to be deemed obscene, abusive, or offensive.
