 Tiered Internet Access For Youth
|
 It's not your father's Internet, and the State of Delaware has passed the Delaware Children's Internet Protection Act, requiring parents and guardians to choose from different levels of electronic access when they register their children under 18 for a library card. This is a detailed description of what is included in each level.

Managing Your Library Account Online
|
Some people like the freedom of logging into the system from home and only having to set foot inside the library to pick up their items and drop them off. That's okay! We can do that. Between this web site and the TIPCat online catalog, we can cover your needs. This brochure gives you an overview of managing your TIPCat account. For more detailed walkthroughs of the catalog, please refer to the  Using the Catalog page.
Please note: in order to find the "My Account" tab mentioned in the guide, you have to be in the TIPCat online catalog...it is not located on this web site.

Internet Acceptable Use Policy
|
All Internet (SAM) users are required to accept our Internet Acceptable Use Policy before being allowed to access our Public-Access computing services (except the catalog). This is the same text as is displayed in all New Castle County Libraries.
