During check-in and check-out ensure device and all accessories are not missing or damaged

eReader device is not to be used for purchasing or loading digital content not currently made available from the EFSC Libraries

The wireless connection for Kindles is not locked, so, borrowers can connect to Wi Fi and browse the Internet using Silk (Kindle Fires)

If a Kindle goes to lost status, notify library administration immediately with the assigned ID (i.e., CO1) and the barcode number - preloaded titles will be unregistered and unavailable.
