PC Reservation Guidelines / Procedures

PC RESERVATION INSTRUCTIONS

· All reservations are for 60 (or 15) minutes per day. If someone uses only 20 minutes of their 60, then they can then place a second reservation for the remaining 40 minutes, but only after they have logged off from their first session.

· Reservations may be made one day in advance.

· Reservations may be made on the quarter hour i.e. you can reserve from 10:15 to 11:15 and then someone else can reserve from 11:30 to 12:30 and the 15 minutes in between are just free minutes.

· The clock is ticking from the moment that the reservation starts, so if someone takes 5 minutes to gather their stuff, the next person’s time is minus 5 minutes. (this is going to be a problem for some people)

· Patron may lock the machine (I need to go to the restroom, or go get a book or….) and come back and unlock and use during their time. But if their time is up, the lock expires.

· If you want to change your reservation on the same day that you had one already in place, make a new reservation and cancel the old one at the prompt.

· If you are over 5 minutes late for your reservation, the computer is no longer reserved for you. If nobody is at the computer, you may sit down and use it as with any available computer.

· ID with name, DOB and photo is required for Internet only card.

· Guest/Tourist passes require photo ID such as passport or DL
