[Publib] Streamlining patron registration

[Lise Chlebanowski]

We have paperless registration except for minors. We retain those signed forms in a file by age. When the minor turns 18, we recycle them. I'm not sure what you mean by DVD/Video rules...

We have a computer use policy that includes all the verbiage about inappropriate viewing, etc. right up on the screen when they sign on. They have to accept the terms of our policy before they can access the Internet. So if they got on the Internet they have to have seen if not read the policy. 

HTH!

I'm having troubles posting to the list and hope this goes through.

We currently have 3 forms that new patrons sign - 1) registration with name,
address, etc., 2) DVD/Video rules, 3) computer usage guidelines.    We do
save the papers after all is entered in the computer thinking that someday
we may have to prove they signed if there are problems.   Anyone have a more
streamlined system like putting all on one sheet and needing only one
signature?   Do you save the papers?

Thanks for any advice.
