Itasca County adopts interim Law Library Acceptable Use Policy, including surveillance and computer reset rules

The Itasca County Board approved an interim Itasca County Law Library Acceptable Use Policy during its Aug. 18 meeting. The policy establishes law-library hours (8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.), makes public-access computers subject to automatic resets and data wiping (scheduled at 11:45 a.m. and 4:15 p.m.), sets a three-hour daily use limit per patron, and states that the facility is "subject to continuous video surveillance and recording." The board voted 5–0 to approve the interim policy.
