Subject: TexShare Logon Security Reminder


If you are using a Customized Gateway to access the TexShare databases
please remember:
Access to the TexShare Databases through this menu page is intended
exclusively for staff and local patrons of your library.
Please provide logon and password information ONLY to current
card-holders
at your library. If you place your logon and password on your webpage or
in
a newspaper or other publicly accessible venue then individuals who may
not
be authorized users of the TexShare databases may have access to the
information we provide. Our contracts with the database vendors clearly
state who are authorized users of the TexShare libraries, making access
available to individuals who are not eligible to use these resources
could
result in a breach of any of our contracts. 

If you are not using a Customized Gateway to access the TexShare
databases
you may still have a logon and password that was given to you at some
point
to access the databases. The above information applies in this situation
as
well. Please do not publicize the logon and password information via
mass
media. Instead please distribute the logon information on the back of a
bookmark or library brochure. 

We encourage you to share TexShare logon information with your library
patrons just do so in a responsible manner keeping the above guidelines
in
mind. If you have questions about this please contact me.
