This allows us to create a standard user profile or let patrons use their own Google credentials. When the due date arrives, we can disable the device remotely with a lock screen and a gentle reminder to please return the unit. Upon return, the Chromebook can be reset to a clean state. Admin Console also lets us prevent "power washing" or factory reset- as long as the device is provisioned with our organization, it will always "phone home" for a password. The hardest part of the whole process is ensuring internal communication so that I know when to switch a device on or off.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Matthew Kinsey<br></div><div>IT Coordinator<br></div><div>Guernsey County District Public Library</div><br><div style="border-top: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); height: 0px; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; line-height: 0px;" class="zmail_extra_hr"><br></div><div style="" data-zbluepencil-ignore="true" class="zmail_extra"><br><div id="Zm-_Id_-Sgn1">---- On Tue, 01 Dec 2020 11:45:09 -0500 <b>Maria Wilburn <mwilburn@seolibraries.org></b> wrote ----<br></div><br><blockquote style="margin: 0px;"><div><div class="x_-1825445103default-style">We want to circulate about a 6 small laptops/chromebooks for to the public.
