Privacy Policy

The library is committed to protecting the privacy of its users. We do not share circulation or computer information. When a book is returned the record of who borrowed is erased. We do keep statistics on the number of times an item is loaned and the number of items circulated, but there are no names associated with this data.

Computers are in a public area. Please exercise care if typing any confidential documents or numbers. Financial transactions such as credit card purchases or checking your bank accounts should not be done on Library computers to safe guard your privacy. Participation in any web site that uses cookies to facilitate processing is done at your own risk. Statistics are kept on web site visits to help the computer support people better manage the college’s hardware.
