Answer:
The computer time limit is for each DAY at this Library. You are allowed 30 minutes. The computer will automatically log off after 30 minutes. If no one is waiting, you may extend your time at the computer for up to another 30 minutes by asking the reference librarian to log you on again. You may not exceed a total of 60 minutes per day. Note: Depending upon campus resources, events, and classroom activities, you may not be able to extend your time right away. You may have to return later. ACC Reference Librarians can provide you with a brochure that identifies additional computer resources surrounding ACC campuses for your use.
