Hello,

My library is trying to determine the best way to work on the situation
of students who use the library computers to download games or play
music or look at the latest entries on Facebook, Myspace, and other
social sites. This kind of activity causes noise and keeps computers
from being available to others for research.

Does anyone have any suggestions of how to deal with this kind of
situation?

Is anyone restricting computer use or restricting accessibility to
certain sites? If so, how?

Please respond off list.

Thanks,
