Computer Use Policy

The first priority of the BHC Library computers is to support student academic activities.

Guests may use a computer for up to 2 hours per day when workstations are available. Guests must sign-in at the circulation desk.  During busy times, guests may be asked by library staff to give up computers in order to accommodate students in need of a computer. Students having difficulty finding a computer for academic activities should ask library staff for help finding a computer. 

Anyone using the BHC Library computers must do so in compliance with the Computer Security and Responsible Use Policy found in the Black Hawk College Board Policy Manual Section 8.9.

 

Printing & Copying

BHC students may print for free in the Library in accordance with the following policies:

  1. Printing must be for academic purposes.
  2. Printing must comply with copyright regulations.
  3. Only release or cancel print jobs that belong to you.
  4. PowerPoint slides must be printed at a minimum of 3 slides per page.
  5. Printing is limited to 20 pages per job.

Non-academic printing and printing by community guests will be charged $0.05 per side.

The Library reserves the right to cancel print jobs or revoke privileges to those found to be in violation or abuse of these policies.
