[Publib] Children in the Adult Computer Center

[Regina Slezak]

  I would also like to know how libraries are dealing with children 
who use the computers in the adult area of the library.   Do you ask 
them to move to computers in the children's are or do they have 
access to the adult computers?  If they are with a family group that 
includes adults also using the adult computers are they able to stay?

Thanks.
