Computers, Internet & Email Access

Staff provides limited assistance for basic startup procedures. If you have never used computers or have specific questions about software, there are instruction manuals, self-help tutorials and videos available for use. We also offer one-on-one computer classes covering basic use of computers, the internet, and email. Call us at 687-9228 to make an appointment.

The Internet provides access to other computer systems throughout the world. Users are advised that some systems contain materials that are offensive, inaccurate, or illegal. Campbell County Public Library supports intellectual freedom, but does filter internet access. Anyone under the age of 18 must use filtered Internet access unless they are being assisted by a parent, guardian or library staff member, or have parental permission for unfiltered access, indicated by a sticker on their library card and a note in their patron record.

Campbell County Public Library System uses a pc management system to ensure fair and equal access to computers for all patrons. Tampering with this system or otherwise violating our Internet Responsible Use Policy may result in suspension of library privileges and exclusion from the library, as well as prosecution.
