The Genoa Public Library only offers free & unfiltered internet access. It is the responsibility of the parents to monitor their children’s internet activities.
By choosing to use this free service, you agree to abide by the Genoa Public Library Internet Policy. Failure to follow policy and procedures will result in the loss of wireless privileges as used in the library.
The library is not responsible for the accuracy or timeliness of any materials accessed by a patron. Nor is it responsible for any damage that may be done to the owner’s equipment due to software downloaded, viruses, Trojans, or any other cause.
As in the use of broadband access, patrons are not allowed to use the internet for the following:
1. Accessing materials or activities considered illegal by Federal, State or local government.
2. To display sexually explicit materials, or to e-mail such materials.
3. To send fraudulent, harassing, or obscene e-mails.
