Library Computer Use Policy

The Library’s computers are provided for the use of Westchester Community College students, faculty, staff, administrators and the Westchester County community in support of the programs of the College and are to be used for education, research, academic development and administrative purposes. Unacceptable use is prohibited and is grounds for loss of computing privileges, as well as discipline or legal sanctions under Federal, State or local laws and Westchester Community College policies. The Harold L. Drimmer Library & Learning Resources Center follows the Westchester Community College Computer Usage Policy.

Computers in the open areas on the main floor and second floor of the Library have standard college networked software and are intended for user research of the Library’s online databases and the World Wide Web. Computers are available on a first-come first-serve basis. Users working on assignments have priority in their use. Users may be asked to give up their seat if they are not working on school or research assignments when there is a demand by other users who need to the computer for course or research work.

Standard college networked software and selected specialized applications are available on computers in the open lab on the ground floor of the Library and are available to any user on a first-come first-serve basis. Sign-in is required as well as a currently valid WCC ID card.
