Parents or guardians, not the Library or its staff, are ultimately responsible for their children’s use of the Internet through the Library’s connection. The Hershey Public Library does not monitor, and has no control over, any materials obtained on the Internet, and cannot be held responsible for its content. Despite the presence of filtering software, it is recommended that parents supervise their children’s Internet sessions.
The computers cannot process patron downloads of programs or updates. If you have a request for a download, please submit it in writing to the Circulation Desk. We will support your request as possible.
If you want to save any documents, please save them via USB/flash drive, CD, ZIP drive or other online service, such as Google Drive, SkyDrive, Zoho.com. CDs-RW or DVDs- RW can be purchased at the Circulation desk or the Reference desk for $1.00.
