We experienced a growing number of complaints that computers in Wilson Library were not available for our primary users or for researchers visiting the library from outside the University. Non-University users were monopolizing the majority of the computers and were using them for long periods of time to do personal email, chat and gaming. This is not a change in policy. We have posted signs for several years indicating that computers are reserved for research and that personal e-mail, chat and gaming are prohibited.
