Gill Library Visitor Policy
back to policies
  

Gill Library is not a public library, but Visitors are welcome.  A Gill Library Visitor is someone who is not a staff or faculty member, student or administrator at The College of New Rochelle (CNR) and who is not eligible to have a CNR Network ID.  While in Gill Library, Visitors are welcome to use the resources, subject to availability.  Visitors under middle-school age must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian.

 

Visitors will be logged on to a computer only on the first floor and must follow these procedures:

  • The Visitor will be given a copy of the Gill Library Visitor Policy and must sign and date it.
  • The Visitor will leave a valid photo ID (i.e., not expired), such as a driver's license, at the Circulation Desk.  Credit cards will not be accepted.
  • Library staff will check-out a designated computer to the Visitor and log him or her on.
  • The Visitor will observe the Responsible Internet Use Policy on the Gill Library Web site.
  • In the unusual event that a computer is needed by a CNR student, the Visitor will be required to relinquish use of the computer.  The Visitor may be logged on to the next available computer.
  • Librarians provide reference assistance to all Library patrons.  However, the Library does not assist patrons with computer applications, such as MS Word, etc.
  • The Library is not responsible for lost data or damaged data storage devices.
  • The Visitor will return to the Circulation Desk to retrieve the ID when finished using the computer, and the Library staff will check-in the computer and return the ID card to the Visitor.

A Visitor who wishes to obtain borrowing privileges at Gill Library may read the Subscribers Policy and may apply for a Gill Library Subscriber Card at the Circulation Desk.

 

Please contact Jennifer L. Ransom, Access Services/Reference Librarian at (914) 654-5342 with any questions regarding the Gill Library Visitor Policy.

 

Before a Visitor is logged on to a computer, upon visiting Gill Library, the Visitor must sign a copy of the Gill Library Visitor Policy indicating that he/she has read it and agrees to adhere to it and all other Gill Library Policies.
