We intend shortly to offer in our searchroom direct access to the web 
browser version of the National Register of Archives and ARCHON.

We wish to restrict public use to relevant archival sites and other 
information resources so that we do not become a free cyber café.

We will need to revise our search room regulations accordingly.  Do any 
list members offer, or plan to offer, similar public access to the 
Internet?  If so could you please copy to me information about your 
security arrangements and search room regulations?  

As this will probably become a standard service in record offices and 
libraries, there may be some value in drafting model regulations for 
wider use.  Please let me know if you are interested in participating.
