Darien Library

Circulating Early Literacy iPads

Liability Statement

This iPad is intended for Darien Library Members to use with pre-school age children to demonstrate how iPad apps can support the development of both traditional Early Literacy skills and 21st Century Skills including Digital Literacy. The Early Literacy Kits include interactive storybooks and programs that encourage the acquisition of reading skills in young children in a fun, kid-friendly format. The Kits may be borrowed for one week and renewed if there are no Members waiting on the reserve list. Settings have been restricted on the iPads and the pre-selected apps are appropriate for children between the ages of 2 and 5. Darien Library is not responsible for items purchased or downloaded by the borrower. The iPads will be reset and any content added or created during the loan period will be lost when the item is returned.

I hereby acknowledge that I have checked out to my Darien Library account one iPad and accessories listed below. If I do not return all of the listed equipment when due, I agree that I will be charged an overdue fine of $10.00 per day until it is returned. If the equipment has not been returned after five days, I agree that my Library Card account will be charged the replacement cost, the total value of which is $640.85. If I return the iPad or any of its components with damage beyond normal wear and tear, replacement charges will be determined by Darien Library.
