Procedures for Using the Clintonville Public Library's Public Access Computers

• Computer use is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Each user is allowed at least one half hour of computer time - if there is no one waiting for the service at the end of that time, the user can remain on the computer. Once having had the service for the first half hour the user must abandon use of the computer if someone else requests the service.
