Purpose
As part of our collection, Columbia College Library provides access to a broad
range of information resources, including those available through the Internet.
The Internet offers access to many valuable local, national, and international
sources of information. We make this service available to fulfill our mission
to offer a broadly defined program of informational, educational, recreational
and cultural enrichment opportunities for Tuolumne and Calaveras County
citizens of all ages and backgrounds. Some Internet sites contain information
which one may find inaccurate, controversial or offensive. The Library has no
control over the information on the Internet and cannot be held responsible for
its content.
Access Policy
It is the Library's policy that parents or legal guardians must assume
responsibility for deciding what library resources are appropriate for their
children. There will be some resources which parents may feel are inappropriate
for their children. Restriction of a child's access to the Internet is the
responsibility of the parent or guardian; the Library does not have the right
or responsibility to act in place of the parent or legal guardian (loco
parentis).
The Columbia College Library specifically disclaims any warranty as to the
content's accuracy, authoritativeness, timeliness, usefulness, or fitness for a
particular purpose. The Library shall have no liability for any direct,
indirect, or consequential damages related to the use of the information
contained therein.
Responsible Use Agreement
With the freedom and privilege to access computers and the Internet come
the responsibility to use this service in a responsible and ethical manner. The
following is a partial list of unacceptable uses. Please YCCD Board of Trustees
