[lstac] CIPA and 'secured' devices

[Maura Walsh]

Good morning,

Here's a new-to-me puzzle.
Can a library use LSTA funds to purchase iPads for kids that they then 'secure' or 'disable' for internet use? They want to have the devices preloaded with apps for kids to use. They say they can purchase three iPads for the cost of a single AWE, which is why they prefer this method.
Have any of you had a similar request or experience?
Thanks!
