All computer users agree to abide by the policy as detailed below when logging on to the computers operated by Nottingham City Libraries and Information Service

Nottingham City Libraries and Information Service provides public access to computer facilities in keeping with its role of enabling and encouraging equal access by individuals and groups to sources of information and knowledge.

Nottingham City Libraries and Information Service has no control over the information accessed and cannot be held responsible for the content or quality of the information retrieved, nor for any problems in accessing individual Internet sites.

As is the case with all other library materials, any restriction of a child's access to the Internet is the responsibility of the child's parent or legal guardian.

It is unacceptable to create, access, copy, download, transmit or publish any material:

  • which is obscene, vulgar, racist, defamatory or fraudulent.
  • which causes harassment to others.
  • which is likely to irritate or waste the time of others.
  • where such action would breach copyright.

The booking regulations require that :

  • All users will vacate the computer at the end of a booked session and agree to do so without delay when requested to by staff.

As part of the normal operation of our computers, information saved/entered by users is automatically saved on our central servers. This includes data files, cookies, encrypted passwords etc.
