[OPLINLIST] e-mail

[Tamara Murray]

We absolutely allow patrons to access their email from all of our public
computers. The only thing we don't allow is access to Microsoft Outlook
which is specific to each computer and configured differently. Gmail,
Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL. You name it. This is a major draw for patrons.

Do you allow patrons to access their e-mail from your internet
computers? 
There is a discussion going on here between the director, staff and
board
as to what to do.  Please respond to the list as some people I have
talked
to are watching the list to see the comments.   Thanks, Kathy
