  • The Internet for Kids

    Boy on Laptop

    The Internet is an exciting entry to the universe of knowledge and people. It lets you chat with someone on the other side of the globe or view the globe from space. As the Internet is not regulated, people are free to put anything on it without identifying themselves, which leaves users open to some risks. Some material may be inappropriate and some information may be incorrect.

    For more information, Schlow Library's Internet Policy, and Internet guidelines for kids click "more info."
