| Welcome to the Daviess County Public Library’s Internet Access. Information and resources available via the Internet enhance those already held in the library and often go beyond what is locally available. While users are encouraged to take advantage of Internet resources, keep in mind that the library is a public place visited by people of all ages and as such, it is important to exercise good judgment and discretion in its use.
The following are not permitted:
The Internet is a global electronic network that provides dynamic resources and facilitates communication. Library staff cannot control access points that often change rapidly and unpredictably. Not all sites on the Internet provide accurate, complete or current information. You need to be a good information consumer, questioning the validity of the information you find. Just as libraries do not vouch for or endorse viewpoints of written materials in their collections, they do not do so for electronic information. It is the responsibility of the user (or the parent/legal guardian) to determine what is appropriate. Parents are advised to supervise their children’s Internet sessions. WARNING: Although the library uses virus detection software on library computers, this will not completely protect you from the chance of getting a virus. Files downloaded from the Internet may contain a virus and you need to have virus detection software on your own computer. The Daviess County Public Library is not responsible for damage to a user’s computer or for any loss of data, theft of data, damage or liability that may occur from use of the library’s computers.
