Case Study: Las Vegas-Clark County Library District achieves centralized control and reduced troubleshooting for 900 computers with PolicyPak

Library System Deploys PolicyPak to Manage 900 Computers at 25 Locations

Windmill Library and Service Center, the headquarters for the Las Vegas–Clark County Library District, supports about 900 computers across 25 branches. Technicians struggled to keep frequently updated apps (Java, Flash, Reader) current without allowing automatic updates—relying on manual registry edits and lots of troubleshooting—and lacked the granular controls needed to safely roll out Chrome and Firefox to staff and patrons.

They deployed PolicyPak On‑Premise to centrally manage applications and browser settings (Java, Flash, Reader, Chrome, Firefox, RealVNC, etc.), disabling auto‑updates, locking homepages, blocking pop‑ups and unauthorized plug‑ins, and applying separate policies for public versus internal machines. The result was faster, easier deployments, significantly reduced troubleshooting and emergency patching, safe browser rollout, strong vendor support, and greater peace of mind for the IT team.
