Basically hasn't changed. To your questions: yes, yes and yes. A few students who had a hard time managing the access appropriately have had limits put on the sites they can access by the system administrators.

students can read literature / english books in traditional format if they choose.


Incorrect. the answer to your questions are Yes, Yes and No.
