Principles and Rules

Access to personal information is restricted to Library staff who need to conduct Library business. Personal information may never be used for commercial purposes and should not be disclosed to any third party except as required by law or to fulfill an individual’s service request. Personal information must only be kept the shortest amount of time necessary to complete transactions or to provide service. A patron’s library record may not be disclosed to any other parties without the express consent of the patron or in response to a lawfully issued subpoena, search warrant, or other court order. Law enforcement, other than TCC Police requesting confidential information should be referred directly to the Dean of Libraries and Knowledge Management or the appropriate college administrator if the Dean of Libraries and Knowledge Management is unavailable.
