New Computer Management System at the Library

New at Doniphan-Ripley County Library is CASSIE Print & Time Management Software. No longer do you have to sign in at the reference desk to use the computers: simply use your card to sign up at the registration station. This service should also be available at the Naylor Branch Library soon. Everyone who wants to use the computers must have a 4-digit pin number for your account. To get a pin number, go to the front desk and give them the pin number you want.

Once signed up, notice that the system will identify you by a number (1, 2, 3, etc). The marquee sign located just above the reservation computer will identify the number and the computer number that is available. As soon as it says that you are assigned to a specific computer, simply go to that computer and type in your 14 digit library card number and pin number. You can then enjoy free access to the internet.

Important: when the system assigns you to a computer, you only have 5 minutes in order to log into that computer. Please do not think that you need to wait for 5 more minutes! If you do this, the computer will no longer be assigned to you and will assign itself to the next patron.

If there are not many people on the computers, your time will be extended automatically. If, however, there are other patrons waiting, your computer will be assigned to someone else at the end of your session. If you need more time, please let us know; or you can also sign back up at the registration station yourself: you are NOT limited to just one session per day.

Finally, you will need to add money to your account before you are able to print. To do this, bring up your library card and your money to the circulation desk.

As always, the black & white printer is 10 cents per page and the color printer is 25 cents per page. Please note that whatever money you do not use will stay on your card as long as you need it.
