[Publib] RE: Patron devices/hardware and public computers

[Darren Thompson]

We allow patrons to bring in digital cameras or other equipment into the
Library and use on our workstations as long as their devices don't require
extra software to be installed.  I would recommend that your IT dept install
card readers (e.g., SD card readers), on at least a couple of workstations,
to allow for more flexibility with digital devices.  Card readers enable the
patrons to plug in their cards instead of connecting the device to a USB
port, which may require software to be installed.

 

Good luck,

 

Darren
