This entry will be a twist on a typical blog posting. I don’t have much information to share on this topic, instead I’m looking for your commentary.
The question of the day
Have you ever been to a genealogy library or other research facility where you were not allowed entry with a laptop? I’ve had issues in the past where bags and briefcases were not allowed, I can understand that rule as they are trying to circumvent theft, but a ban on laptops seems a little more unusual.
The topic came up from a Pocket Genealogist user who was pleased because they were able to carry their information on a PDA since they no longer could use a laptop at their favorite library.
Has this ever happened to you? What’s the policy at your library?
