Internet and Workstation Access

Because our workstations are a heavily used resource, this policy is to ensure that they are readily available for use when you need them. The Library's Internet and Workstation Accessible Use Policy is under development but will be based on the district's acceptable use policy. Priority use of our workstations is for course research and coursework. Users that are not actively engaged in research for their NLC / ACCD courses or coursework may be asked to relinquish their workstations at heavy use times. The NLC Library staff reserves the right to make judgment calls on appropriate use of its workstations. Children under the age of 16 may not use the library's workstations unless a parent or guardian is directly supervising usage.

To minimize unnecessary use of district computing resources, gaming and downloading of music files is prohibited. Changing workstation settings, including software loads and presets, is prohibited. We ask that our users be courteous to others while using the library and its resources and that users abide by copyright law and licensing agreements.

Users may access the college's wireless server using their district login. In addition to access to the Internet, the Library's workstations also provide access to Microsoft Office Suite software.
