Library Computers

Computer and Internet Use by UAMS Faculty, Staff, and Students

Priority is given to activities directly related to the university’s mission (e.g., completing course assignments or engaging in research) with use of the Library’s computing resources for academic pursuits taking precedence over non-academic or recreational use. 

A limited number of computers with Internet access are reserved for the public seeking biomedical or healthcare information.   Visitors are required to sign in before being logged into a computer.  By signing in visitors acknowledge that they have read, understand, and agree to this policy.
