• Department of Education

  The Virginia Department of Education supports and strongly encourages schools/divisions to develop an Acceptable Use Policy. To assist in that effort, we have created an electronic "handbook" of resources. Since schools are at various stages of implementation in the use of computer networks, this electronic handbook does not prescribe a single Acceptable Use Policy. Instead, it provides links to various sources of information that may be helpful to administrators, teachers, library media specialists, and parents in the development of a local AUP. The Internet is a virtual community based simply on courtesy and commonsense. A local AUP reflects the circumstances unique to the school or division, the electronic system used, and clearly defines what constitutes local responsible use of information networks.

• Virginia Library and Information Network (VLIN)

  The Library's Main Home Page contains detailed information about the facility and services.
