Libraries
Libraries play an important role in providing internet access and advice to children, their parents, and other library users. To help library staff in this role, ACMA has developed a range of resources about how to manage risks so that library users have safe and positive experiences online
Developed in conjunction with the Australian Library and Information Association and Australian public libraries these resources aim to complement existing policies in libraries and provide additional resources and support to library staff.
The Cybersmart Guide for Library Staff provides information, support and tools to effectively promote internet safety in Australian public libraries—especially for children.
This guide is complemented by a cyber rules poster for young internet users and a series of online cybersafety videos. Information for families, including the Cybersmart Guide for Families is also available.
